Kamnjek (pronounced [ˈkaːmnjɛk]; German: Kamnik[2]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Kranj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

[3] It lies west of the village center of Letenice, in a small damp valley on a road leading into the east side of the Udin Woods (Slovene: Udin boršt).

[1] Like similar names (e.g., Kamnik, Kamenik, Kamnje, Kamno, etc.

), the name Kamnjek is ultimately derived from the Slavic common noun *kamy (accusative: *kamenь) 'stone', referring to the local geography.

[2][6] Kamnjek was merged with the village of Letenice in 1953, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
