Predmeja - Navrše (Pot po Robu)

Access to starting point:
A) From central Slovenia we first drive to Logatec, then continue driving in the direction of Idrija. At Kalce near Logatec we turn left in the direction of Col, then continue driving on a winding road towards Col. At Col we turn right and then after 100 m left in the direction of Predmeja. Further we drive on an occasionally somewhat narrower and also partly still winding road to Predmeja. At Predmeja we will notice signs for Pot po Robu and next to them the monument "Materi Gori" and a large macadam parking lot.
B) From the expressway Razdrto - Nova Gorica we head to the exit Ajdovščina and continue following the road towards the village Lokavec (to Lokavec we come from the center of Ajdovščina, or from the old road Ajdovščina - Nova Gorica, where at the settlement Cesta we turn right). From Lokavec we continue driving on an ascending winding road in the direction of Predmeja. When the road flattens somewhat, we come to a crossroads, where we continue right towards Predmeja and Col. On the road towards Col we drive only 100 m, then on the right side we notice a larger parking lot and signposts for Pot po Robu.

Path description:
A warning! Due to private property, it is no longer possible to reach the summit via the path described below!

From the starting point we first walk to the vantage point, then continue left in the direction of "Pot po Robu". The initially poorly visible path first descends slightly, then passes into the forest, through which it gradually begins to ascend moderately. We quickly ascend almost to the top of the 889 m high peak (on maps without a name), then we begin to descend. Pot po Robu continues across grassy hayfields, in the middle of which individual bushes grow. A little further ahead the path turns slightly to the right and brings us to the edge of steep and partly precipitous slopes. The path and the slope then flatten, and we continue on the trail that crosses numerous meadows (in spring and summer the meadows are full of flowers). The occasionally poorly traceable path, which for some time runs on slopes dangerous for slipping, brings us higher to a rocky promontory that descends precipitously towards the Vipava Valley. The path ahead temporarily returns to plateau terrain, then begins to ascend steeply along the edge of cliffs (especially when wet there is also a risk of slipping). The path then brings us from the bushes onto a panoramic grassy slope, across which we ascend to the summit of Dolski maj in a few minutes.
From Dolski maj we continue on the marked and occasionally somewhat more overgrown path towards the southeast. The path quickly descends into the forest, through which we continue for some time. After a while the path flattens and brings us out of the forest onto more panoramic slopes again. We continue along the edge of the plateau on a more panoramic path that continues without major changes in elevation. A little further ahead we cross a belt of forest, and the path then brings us to a wooden post with directional and information boards. Here we continue somewhat to the right towards the Otliški maj viewpoint (the straight path bypasses the Otliški maj peak). The path ahead ascends more steeply and brings us to the panoramic peak in 5 minutes of further walking.
From Otliški maj we descend along the panoramic grassy slope and quickly join the path that bypassed the mentioned peak on the left side. We continue in the same direction and just a little further arrive at a marked junction, where the path from the Hublja spring joins us from the right.
We continue in the direction of Sinji vrh and Otliško okno, and the path brings us to the place where a path branches off to the left to the stone snail, which is only a minute's walk away. We continue straight and in a few dozen steps of further walking arrive at the information boards by Otliško okno. From the boards we can descend to the window through which a nice view of the Vipava Valley opens up.
From the window we continue on the path in the direction of Sinji vrh. The path ahead quickly comes out of the forest and brings us to panoramic slopes, along which we ascend in the southeastern direction along the edge of cliffs. After approximately 10 minutes of walking from the window the path splits into two parts. At the spot where the pasture fence makes a sharp left turn we leave the wide path and head right onto a worse but marked path, which after five minutes of ascent brings us to Navrše.
