Vukovje (pronounced [ˈʋuːkɔu̯jɛ]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Pesnica in northeastern Slovenia. It lies north and east of the Pernica Reservoir (Slovene: Perniško jezero) in the Slovene Hills (Slovene: Slovenske gorice). The area was traditionally part of Styria. The municipality is now included in the Drava Statistical Region.[2]

Two small roadside chapel-shrines in the settlement date to the early 20th century.[3]
