Pance is located on a sun-exposed hill east of Mali Lipoglav above the Cirje Valley, where the Pance River (Slovene: Panška reka) flows north, fed by several small tributaries. The Dol Valley lies to the southeast. Fat Hill (Slovene: Debeli Hrib, elevation 617 meters or 2,024 feet) rises to the east. The soil is a mixture of sand and loam, and there are many rocks. There are tilled fields along the ridge of the hill.[3]
