Dol pod Gojko (pronounced [ˈdoːl pɔd ˈɡoːi̯kɔ]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Vojnik in eastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of the Styria region. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Savinja Statistical Region.[2]

The name of the settlement was changed from Dol to Dol pod Gojko in 1953.[3]

The local church is dedicated to the Holy Trinity and belongs to the Parish of Frankolovo. It was built between 1848 and 1849 and is dominated by its double spire. Its paintings are the work of the Friulian painter Jakob Brollo (sl) (1834–1918) and its furnishings date from the time of the church's construction.
