Gora - Stjenkova koča on Trstelj

Access to starting point:
From the Razdrto - Nova Gorica highway, we take the exit Selo and then drive towards the village Dornberk. In the village Dornberk, we turn left in the direction of Koper and then after 100 meters right towards Trstelj (turn-off for Trstelj is marked). We follow the ascending road to the parking lot on the left side of the road (we recognize the parking lot by a smaller chapel, which is situated in the middle of a rock, and on top of the mentioned rock we notice a small Aljaž tower).
From the Nova Gorica side, we can come to the village Dornberk also past Šempeter and Volčja Draga.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road which in a few minutes brings us to the hamlet Gora. Behind the last house in the village, the marked path turns right and after a short ascent returns to the road. We follow the road ahead for a few minutes to Železnih vrat, where we notice the mountaineering markers. We continue the ascent on a wide gentle cart track which quickly brings us below the wires of the power line. Here we leave the cart track and continue left on a footpath which goes into the forest and starts moderately ascending. The steepness then decreases and the path brings us to unvegetated slopes, from which a view opens up towards the transmitters on the top of Trstelj. The path then goes again into the forest, where the path from Renče joins from the right. We continue left and after a few more steps we step onto a worse road which we follow to the right towards the mountain hut, which we already see in front of us.

On the way: Železna vrata (445m)

Trip can be extended to: Trstelj ( 5 min)
