Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Koper highway, take the Divača exit and follow the road ahead towards the villages Lokev and Lipica. The road then quickly brings us to the village Lokev, where at the end of the village we will come to a crossroad, where a road towards the Vilenica cave branches off to the right. We head along this road, from which a road soon branches off to the right (the turn-off is marked), which leads us after 100 meters to the parking lot at the Vilenica cave.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we walk through a meadow to the mountain signposts, which we see on the other side of the already mentioned meadow. We continue left in the direction of Sežana (right marked path to Stari tabor) on a cart track, which in 5 minutes of walking along bushes brings us to an unmarked junction.
We continue right slightly upwards on a cart track to the next junction, where we continue left on a less trodden cart track. The cart track ascends more steeply and after 10 minutes of walking we reach a crossroad before the Tupla jama cave, where we turn right and arrive at the entrance to the cave. It is possible to continue into the cave. After 5 meters, a vertical second entrance joins, and beyond it the cave continues.
Description and pictures refer to conditions in April 2023.
