Hrašče - Furlanovo zavetišče pri Abramu (via Brižnik)

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana–Koper motorway, take the Razdrto exit, then continue driving on the old road towards Nova Gorica. After Razdrto, the road starts to descend more steeply, and we follow it to the crossroads, where the road to Nanos branches off to the right. Turn onto the mentioned road, where after the first sharp right turn we park in a suitable spot beside the next small crossroads.
B) From the Nova Gorica–Razdrto expressway, take the Vipava exit, then continue driving on the old road towards Razdrto; we drive along it for only a few kilometres, then the signs for Nanos direct us sharply left onto an ascending road. Turn onto the mentioned road, where after the first sharp right turn we park in a suitable spot beside the next small crossroads.

Path description:
From the starting point we head onto the side road, beside which we notice signs for Nanos and the hunting hut. We walk a few metres along the mentioned road, then the markings direct us right onto a marked footpath that starts to ascend through the forest. A little higher we cross an asphalt road; when we step onto it a second time, we continue along it across the expressway. On the other side of the expressway, which we cross right at the start of the tunnel, the road up which we are ascending gradually turns right. We walk along the asphalt to the end of the next hairpin bend, from there we turn right onto a marked path that higher returns to the road.
When we step back onto the road, we follow it right (straight along the footpath – path past the korita), and we walk along it for some time. Higher, the path to the village Lozice branches off right and downwards, but a little higher we continue left onto a footpath which soon crosses the road we have just left. Just a few steps higher we step onto a wide cart track and follow it right. At the junctions we follow the cart track in the direction indicated by the markings; higher it turns into a wide footpath. A few more minutes of ascent follow, and the path brings us to a junction where the path from Lozice joins.
Here we continue left towards the hunting hut; a relatively wide path leads us in numerous zigzags across increasingly steep slopes. The relatively steep path occasionally takes us across quite panoramic slopes from which we get a fine view of the Vipava Hills. Higher we reach a somewhat more demanding section where the otherwise wide path ascends across a short exposed slope (danger of slipping especially in snow and ice). Above the exposed traverse we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue straight on the wide path (left down to Podnanos and Vipava, right to Vojkova koča via Strmec). We continue ascending moderately along the wide path, and after good 10 minutes of further walking we arrive at the Vojkovo hunting hut.
From the hunting hut we continue to the nearby asphalt road and follow it right to the nearby Vrata, beyond which we step onto the south-western part of the Nanos plateau. On the other side of the Vrata the road starts to descend, and we follow it only briefly as the markings then direct us left onto a marked footpath that descends through a pine wood. After a short descent we return to the road and follow it left. We walk along the road to the nearby right bend, at the end of which a marked path branches off left. We continue along the cart track which starts to ascend gently; we walk along it for just a few tens of metres, then on the right side we notice the poorly visible start of a footpath that gradually descends across towards the Šembijska bajta.
At the mentioned bajta we return to the road along which we continue. A little higher we reach a triangular junction where the road to Vipava branches off left, and we continue slightly right along the gradually steeper road. The road, which continues through the forest, then climbs almost 150 height metres and brings us to a junction where we reach the marked Abram–Vojkova koča path. Here we continue left along the road which starts to descend gently. After a few minutes we step out of the forest, where at the junction we continue right towards the nearby hunting lodge.
From the hunting lodge, near which there is a large car park, we continue a few more metres along the road, then the signs for farm tourism Abram direct us left onto a narrower road along which we simply stroll to the nearby shelter.
