Trata (pronounced as /sl/) is a former village in northwestern Slovenia in the Municipality of Gorenja Vas–Poljane. It is now part of the town of Gorenja Vas.[2] It is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included in the Upper Carniola Statistical Region.
Trata stands on a terrace above the right bank of the Poljane Sora River[2] southwest of the former village of Sestranska Vas.[1] The hamlet of Lajše to the southeast was also part of Trata while it was a separate village.[1]
Locally, Trata is known as Trate (i.e., a plural form of the name).[2] The name Trata occurs several times in Slovenia. It is derived from the Slovene common noun trata 'small treeless meadow', which was borrowed from Middle High German trat 'meadow'.[3]
Trata was annexed by the town of Gorenja Vas in 1953, ending its existence as an independent settlement.[4]
The Gorenja Vas parish church stands in Trata and is dedicated to Saint John the Baptist.[1] [2]
