Zbilje is a settlement in the Medvode Municipality in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

The settlement lies next to an artificial lake created in 1953 by the building of the Medvode hydroelecrtic power plant. The lake is a popular tourist site. The local church in the settlement is dedicated to John the Baptist, built in the late 19th century on the site of an earlier church. The main altar dates to 1665.[3]
