border crossing Lipica - Kokoš (by road)

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Koper we take the exit Divača and follow the road ahead in the direction of the villages Lokev and Lipica. Further we drive through the village Lokev, behind which we soon reach a crossroads where the road to the village Lipica branches off to the right. Here we continue straight ahead in the direction of Italy. Just a little before the border crossing (near the casino) we park on a macadam parking lot. Parking in front of the casino is permitted only to guests.

Path description:
Between the parking lot and the border crossing we will notice a macadam road which branches off to the left from the main road. After a few steps along this road we will notice the hiking markers for Kokoš. We continue along the road, which barely noticeably ascends and after approximately 30 minutes of ascent the path brings us to a marked junction. We continue along the road (right: Kokoš steep path), which already after a few more minutes of walking brings us to the next junction. Again we continue along the road (left: footpath), which ahead starts to ascend more steeply in a few hairpin turns. Higher up the steepness eases and the path brings us out of the forest, where a steep path joins us from the right. We continue straight ahead and the path quickly brings us to the summit of Kokoš, on which stands a mountain hut.
