==Geography== thumbnail|left|Črmošnjičica Creek in Občice Občice is a clustered village lying on either side of Črmošnjičica Creek, also known as Wild Creek (), which soon sinks into the ground and then resurfaces below Kočevske Poljane along the road to Dolenjske Toplice. Some of the farms in the village are scattered across the nearby slopes above the valley. Nearby elevations include Little Rigelj Hill (; ) to the northeast, where there are vineyards, and forested Green Hill (; ) to the west. There are tilled fields and meadows on both sides of the valley.
