Razdrto - Suhi vrh (Nanos) (gentle path)

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Koper we take the exit Razdrto (exit only for vehicles with vignettes), and when we reach the old road Postojna - Koper we continue left in the direction of Razdrto. The road then takes us to the other side of the highway, and only a little further we arrive at a junction, where slightly to the right a road branches off, which leads towards the center of Razdrto. In the middle of the settlement, we notice signs for Veliko Ubeljsko and Strane, which direct us to the right. Just before the road crosses the highway, we park on a large parking lot.
B) From Vipava Valley we drive along the expressway towards Ljubljana. Only a little after we join the highway Koper - Ljubljana, we leave it at the exit Razdrto (exit only for vehicles with vignettes). When we reach the old road Postojna - Koper we continue left in the direction of Razdrto. The road then takes us to the other side of the highway, and only a little further we arrive at a junction, where slightly to the right a road branches off, which leads towards the center of Razdrto. In the middle of the settlement, we notice signs for Veliko Ubeljsko and Strane, which direct us to the right. Just before the road crosses the highway, we park on a large parking lot.

Path description:
From the large parking lot, from where there is a nice view towards Pleša, we continue on the asphalt road which through an overpass crosses the highway. On the other side of the highway we arrive at a smaller junction, by which there are hiking signposts. From the junction, we continue left, and we walk on the road only a short time because then signs for Vojkova koča direct us to the right on a gentle footpath which starts ascending on a grassy meadow. After a few minutes of moderate ascent on a grassy slope, we arrive in the forest, where the marked path soon splits into two parts.
We continue left in the direction of the gentle path (right steep path), which a little further leads us through a panoramic meadow. Behind the meadow, the path returns to the forest and starts gently ascending. Further on, we ascend diagonally towards the northwest, first still through the forest, higher over panoramic, occasionally steeper slopes. With views of the upper part of Vipava Valley and Vipavska Brda, after approximately an hour and a half of walking from the starting point, we arrive at the edge of the Nanos plateau, where there is a marked junction.
Left leads the path towards the church of St. Hieronim (3 minutes) and further towards the hunting hut Vojkovo and Podnanos, and we continue right in the direction of Vojkova koča na Nanosu, on the path which only a few steps further brings us to a less noticeable junction, where to the left branches an unmarked path to Grmada. We continue slightly right on the marked path, which further for quite some time ascends parallel to the road. The path further moves a little more to the right from the road and transitions to the panoramic northwestern edge of Nanos. Here the so-called Janezova pot joins almost unnoticeably from the right, and we continue straight on the wide path, which leads us towards the transmitters on Nanos. Just a little before the transmitters the path turns left, descends into a strip of forest and then past the monument of Janko Premrl Vojko brings us to Vojkova koča na Nanosu.
From the hut we continue on the marked path in the direction of Suhi vrh. The path first crosses the meadow behind the hut, then ascends for a short time. This is followed by some walking with shorter descents and ascents to a panoramic grassy slope. The path then returns to the forest and starts descending more steeply. After a few minutes of descent we come to a marked junction, where we continue left in the direction of Suhi vrh (straight down Strane). After a few minutes of further walking we step onto a forest road, which soon brings us to the hunting hut.
We continue further along the road, from which soon a steep path branches off to the right. We continue straight, and the road soon brings us to a junction, where we continue right in the direction of Suhi vrh. The road a little further starts descending, then we notice a marked footpath which from the road turns sharply to the right. We head onto the mentioned footpath which in a few minutes of somewhat steeper ascent brings us to Suhi vrh.
