Geography

SOIUSA classification 
According to SOIUSA (International Standardized Mountain Subdivision of the Alps) the Slovene Prealps are an Alpine section, classified in the following way:
 main part = Eastern Alps
 major sector = Southern Limestone Alps
 section = Slovene Prealps
 code = II/C-36

Subdivision 
The Slovene Prealps are divided into three non-contiguous subsections:

 Western Slovene Prealps (Sl: Zahodne Slovenske Predalpe) - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.I
 Eastern Slovene Prealps (Sl: Vzhodne Slovenske Predalpe) - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.II
 Northeastern Slovene Prealps (Sl: Severovzhodne Slovenske Predalpe) - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.III

Two of these subsections include just one Alpine supergroup, and the third one is further subdivided in two supergroups:
 Western Slovene Prealps:
 supergroup Škofjeloško-Cerkljansko-Polhograjsko-Rovtarsko hribovje - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.I-A
 Eastern Slovene Prealps:
 supergroup Posavsko hribovje - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.II-A
 Northeastern Slovene Prealps:
 supergroup Strojno s Pohorskim hribovjem - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.III-A
 supergroup Vitanjsko-Konjiško hribovje - SOIUSA code:II/C-36.III-B
