Lazec is a village in the Municipality of Loški Potok in southern Slovenia, close to the border with Croatia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region. There is a pond along the road to Hrib–Loški Potok and another on the road to Stari Kot. The pond towards Stari Kot is walled and stands below Prištal Spring, which is also walled. Before the Second World War the pond was regularly cleaned and used for swimming by the locals. There are karst sinkholes near the pond below the road.
