Smrečnik (pronounced [ˈsmɾeːtʃnik]; also archaic Smrečnjek,[1] German: Feichtbüchel,[2] Gottscheerish: Waichtpiechl[3]) is a remote abandoned settlement in the Municipality of Semič in southern Slovenia.

Smrečnik lies on a rise in a spruce forest on the road from Komarna Vas.

[5] In the land registry of 1574 it consisted of three-fourths of a full farm divided into three quarter-farms and corresponding to a population between eight and eleven.

The population worked as manual laborers and carpenters, had a few vineyards, and also produced bushel baskets.

The village was burned by Italian troops during the Rog Offensive of summer 1942 and was never rebuilt.
