Ozeljan - Vitovski hrib

Access to starting point:
A) From Vipava highway we go to the exit Vogrsko, and then we continue driving in the direction of Tolmin and Ozeljan. When we reach old road Ajdovščina - Nova Gorica, at the traffic light crossroad we continue right towards Ajdovščina. When we get to Ozeljan, in hamlet Otava we continue left on a little narrower road which leads us among houses. When after few 100 meters we get to a smaller crossroad by Zavarovalnica Triglav, Pošta Slovenije and Ozlinka, we continue straight and we park on a parking lot by the recycling spot. We can also park on approximately 100 meters distant parking lot by the cemetery, which is located left from the mentioned crossroad.
B) From Nova Gorica on the old road we drive towards Ajdovščina, after that at hamlet Tri Hiše (hamlet is located at the traffic light crossroad, where a road towards the settlement Vogrsko branches off to the right) we continue straight. When we get to Ozeljan, in hamlet Otava we continue left on a little narrower road which leads us among houses. When after few 100 meters we get to a smaller crossroad by Zavarovalnica Triglav, Pošta Slovenije and Ozlinka, we continue straight and we park on a parking lot by the recycling spot. We can also park on approximately 100 meters distant parking lot by the cemetery, which is located left from the mentioned crossroad.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue towards the east (in the direction of the description to the starting point from the crossroad, where we've parked right), where the path leads past company Konem Color, and then we get to a crossroad, where we continue left (right Lepenje) on an ascending asphalt road. The road further leads past few more houses, after that in next some crossroads we continue on "main" road. When higher, near the hamlet Opade, we get to a crossroad, we continue straight upwards on a macadam road, by which there is traffic sign, which "shows", that we will continue on firebreak gap. We continue on a macadam road which is gently to moderately ascending, and from there occasionally a view opens up a little towards the surrounding hills. Higher, by the next sign for firebreak gap, we continue straight or slightly right. Some 10 strides ahead the road starts descending, and on this spot we continue left on a cart track which ascends to a marked crossing.
From the crossing, we go right (left Vodice), and then we quickly reach the next rough macadam road, where we reach the path from Vitovlje (path from Križišče).
The mentioned road, we reach at 7th Station of the Cross, and on the road we are ascending through the forest. On few minutes distant left turn for some time a nice view opens up on Vitovski hrib, and we follow the road to the next crossing, which is located little before 12th Station of the Cross.
From the mentioned crossing, we continue straight (left Skozno, Kopitnik, Veliki Rob, Čaven...), and we follow an increasingly bad road all the way to the top of panoramic Vitovski hrib, on which there is the church of Holy Mary.
