Trstenik is a settlement in the Benedikt municipality in the Slovenske Gorice hills in northeastern Slovenia. The area was part of the traditional region of Lower Styria. It is now included in the Drava statistical region.[2]

There are two small chapels to the south of the main settlement. Both were built in the early 20th century.[3]

Seven relatively intact tumuli from the Roman period have been identified near the settlement. Such burials are fairly common in the area with an extensive burial ground near Trotkova to the south of Trstenik.[4]
