Access to starting point:

Path description:
In the center of Dekani, near the Mercator store, we notice an information board of the circular path Dekani - Tinjan - Dekani. We continue past the store, where from the crossroad we continue right (slightly left path of return of the circular path), and then at the crossroads we follow the signs for Tinjan, or circular path. Further the road first becomes macadam, a little higher it changes into a cart track. From the wide cart track, from which a view opens up a little towards the coast, we soon go right on a footpath which entirely flattens. We walk a few minutes without major changes in altitude, then at the bench with table the path turns left and starts ascending. A few minutes we ascend more steeply, on an occasionally panoramic path, and then we reach Goli hrib, where there is the next bench with a table.
From the top follows a short descent through the forest, then we reach a worse road, which we follow to the right. Quickly from the left joins the path past the waterfall (path of return of the circular path), and we continue on the road to a smaller saddle, where there are pond and a crossing.
From the crossing we go left (right hunting cottage Kolombar 1 minute) and quickly arrive in the village Kolombar. In the middle of the settlement, on the retaining wall we notice signs for Tinjan, which point to the left (right path of return of the circular path), so we still walk a short time on the asphalt road, and from it we go right behind the nearby house on a marked path, which further ascends transversely towards the right. Higher the path turns left and brings us to an asphalt road, where we join the path from Škofije.
We continue right, then past the chapel and a few houses we quickly arrive at the church on the top of Tinjan, where in front of the church wall there is the SPP stamp.
Dekani - Goli hrib 40 minutes, Goli hrib - hunting cottage 15 minutes, hunting cottage - Tinjan 25 minutes.
