Ankaran - Debeli rtič

Access to starting point:
We drive to Ankaran, then from the roundabout we turn onto Regentova ulica. Before the road starts ascending (after 10 meters), in front of the post office we turn right, where we park on a paid parking lot in the center of Ankaran.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the nearby roundabout, and from there we continue in the direction of Italy. Further on, we walk on the sidewalk along the main road to the Orthopedic Hospital Valdoltra, where we continue slightly right onto Vinogradniška pot. Further, we ascend on an asphalt road accompanied by blazes; higher up we go left and the asphalt ends behind the last house. The path ahead leads us among vineyards, and we bypass the antennas on Gažel on the right side.
From the mentioned spot there is a nice view of the gulfs of Koper and Trieste; the path starts descending and after a few minutes we reach the main road. The path ahead leads us between the road and vineyards; when we arrive at the intersection where the road towards the health resort Debeli rtič branches off to the left from the main road, we carefully cross the road and continue on the macadam road, which continues through the vineyard. The gently sloping path brings us to an old observation tower in a few minutes, from where it is only a minute's walk to the information board on the edge of Debeli rtič. If we continue right from the board, we will reach the last blaze in a few steps, next to which there is the inscription SPP.
