Geography
[edit]The village consists of two parts, Dolnji Zavinek (literally, 'lower Zavinek') to the northwest and Gornji Zavinek (literally, 'upper Zavinek') to the southeast. It also includes the hamlet of Bajnof to the west, along the road to Škocjan. The soil is characterized by mor humus to the east, whereas there is loamy soil to the north. There are tilled fields to the east, northwest, and southwest, as well as meadows.[3] The Zavinek Valley (Slovene: Zavinska dolina) extends into the forest to the northeast, on the margins of which there are springs: Kapler Spring (Kaplerjev studenec), Bregar Spring (Bregarjev studenec), and Upper Spring (Gorenji studenec).
