Access to starting point:
A) From highway Razdrto - Nova Gorica we go to the exit Ajdovščina, and then at the crossroad we turn left in the direction of Nova Gorica. Further, on a regional road towards Nova Gorica we drive to the settlement Vrtovin, there in the middle of the village we turn right in the direction of Čaven. The road which is then ascending through the village at the crossroads we follow in the direction of St. Pavel, Kucelj and Čaven. We park on a smaller parking lot at the end of the village, near the mountain signposts.
B) From highway Nova Gorica - Razdrto we go to the exit Selo, after we drive on the old road Nova Gorica - Ajdovščina we continue right towards Nova Gorica. On regional road towards Ajdovščina we drive to the settlement Vrtovin, there in the middle of the village we turn left in the direction of Čaven. The road which is then ascending through the village at the crossroads we follow in the direction of St. Pavel, Kucelj and Čaven. We park on a smaller parking lot at the end of the village, near the mountain signposts.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the left road in the direction of Kucelj and St. Pavel. After few minutes of walking, the road brings us to a crossing, where mountain path on Kucelj and Čaven branches off to the right upward (straight still on the road St. Pavel). We continue the ascent on a marked, partly rocky cart track which is ascending through an occasionally thin forest. A little higher we get to a marked crossing, where we continue slightly right in the direction of Mala gora and Čaven (slightly left Kucelj). Old, partly rough cart track is further ascending diagonally towards the right, and higher it changes into a little steeper footpath which after a time crosses a forest road. We continue in the direction of Čaven and only a little further we cross a larger clearing, from which a nice view opens up towards Kucelj. On the other side of the clearing the path returns into the forest and is further ascending diagonally on a wide cart track. Higher another cart track towards the village Kamnje branches off to the right downwards, and we continue in the same direction as we walked until now and in few minutes of additional walking, we get to the hunting cottage or bivouac Črna peč.
From the hunting cottage, where we cross the path Srednječavenska pot, we continue in the direction of Mala gora and Čaven. The path immediately above the cottage returns on a cart track, and further it leads below the steep slopes, where it is possible, that from the left also some stones fall down. Despite small chance of falling stones caution still isn't nuisance. Cart track and also the slope quickly flatten out and the path out of the forest quickly brings us to the cottage Koča na Mali gori, where there is the next marked crossing.
From Koča na Mali gori we continue left in the forest and further we are ascending on a moderately steep cart track, and it quickly brings us to the next crossing.
Here we continue straight on a cart track ahead, which then brings us on the path from the mountain hut Koča na Čavnu towards Kucelj. Here we continue left on the path which at first runs almost horizontal, and then it starts ascending. This path then soon comes out of the forest, where we already see Kucelj in front of us. Follows only 10 more minutes of ascent on panoramic upper slope of the mountain.
On the way: Bivak Črna peč (830m), Mala gora (1034m)
