Hrastje (pronounced [ˈxɾaːstjɛ]) is a small settlement in the foothills of the Gorjanci Hills in the Municipality of Šentjernej in southeastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.

The name Hrastje is derived from the Slovene common noun hrast 'oak', referring to the local vegetation.
