Lokvica - Fajti hrib

Access to starting point:
On the highway through the Vipava Valley we drive to the border crossing Vrtojba, then in the larger roundabout, which is located on the Italian side of the border, we continue towards the village Miren (to the village Miren we can also come if, on the regional road from Šempeter pri Gorici, we drive towards Dornberk. In this case, in Volčja draga, we continue right or left, if we came from Dornberk. From the village Miren we continue driving towards the village Opatje Selo. After a few hairpin turns, signs for Cerje point us to the left on a macadam road, which we then follow to the parking lot that is located only a few minutes below the monument Veliko Cerje.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the macadam road closed to traffic, on which we ascend to the monument Veliko Cerje in 5 minutes of walking.
From the monument we continue right on at first a wide path in the direction of Fajti hrib. The path ahead at first slightly descends, then gently ascends over gentle and at first also quite scenic slopes. The path then passes into a mostly pine forest, where it continues with some shorter ascents and descents. After some time we cross a forest road, then continue the ascent on a narrower and in several parts with thorns surrounded mountain path. Higher the forest thins out and a moderately steep path brings us to Fajti hrib, on which there is a smaller information board in memory of the First World War.
