Podgorje - Kojnik (via hunting cottage)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Kozina. We follow the road ahead towards Koper to the village Petrinje, where we go left in the direction of Podgorje. The road which at first steeply ascends soon brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue left. Ahead we drive to the village Podgorje, where we park on a large parking lot near the sports field.
Access from Koper: On old road we drive towards Postojna and only a little after the village Črni Kal sharply to the right, the road branches off towards Vasi Podgorje. We follow this road to a large parking lot near the sports field, which is situated in the village Podgorje.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we return to the main road and we follow it ahead in the direction of driving. After few ten meters we come to a crossroad, where wooden signposts point us to the right. At the crossroad, we continue on the road in the direction of Kojnik. The road which runs without changes in altitude has at the beginning some crossroads, but we everywhere continue on the one that is "main". Here and there we can notice some faded blaze, which marks the path towards Kojnik. After a time the road gradually starts ascending and a little higher brings us to a crossroad, where we continue left. And we follow this road to the next crossroad, where we continue left again. The path ahead leads us past the hunting cottage Kojnik. A little above cottage we leave a worse road and we continue the ascent left in the forest on a marked path. After a short ascent, we step out of the forest and the path brings us on panoramic grassy slopes, on which we diagonally ascend. Above panoramic slopes path passes into a pleasant pine forest, through which we ascend to the top of Kojnik.
