Podnanos - Sveti Miklavž above Vipava

Access to starting point:
From Razdrto we drive on the highway towards Nova Gorica or vice versa and we go to the exit Vipava. When we leave the highway we get to an old road which we follow in the direction of Podnanos. When we get to Podnanos we turn left towards the nearby primary school, post office and store. We park on a large parking lot before the mentioned buildings.

Route description:
Near the information board about Nanos we notice the first signs for Abram, hunting cottage and mountain hut Vojkova koča, which point us on the road which continues by nearby school sports field. After the sports field we get to a smaller crossroad, where signs for Nanos point us right, and we continue straight on the road which turns to the left and at the nearby house ends. We continue over a smaller bridge and then immediately after it right, where for a short time we walk directly next to the water. A little further, we join the asphalt road, and it brings us to a smaller crossroad, where we continue right, and then a little further it also crosses the stream Močilnik. The road further leads past wine cellar Furlan, behind which settlement slowly ends. At the end of the settlement, we get to a crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of "run" and intervention access to highway over Rebrnice. We still continue on the asphalt road, and it a few tens of meters further brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue right again in the direction of "hike and run" (left leads the road towards the nearby houses). Only a little further, the path on running route branches off to the right, and we continue on the asphalt road, on which we ascend above the highway. On the other side of the highway, which we cross by the edge of entrance into a tunnel, asphalt ends, and the road turns to the left and it brings us to the smaller crossroad, where we continue sharply right. From the macadam road only a few steps higher, in the middle of sharp left turn, marked path branches off to the right, which leads towards Abram (path over Konj), hunting cottage Vojkovo and mountain hut Vojkova koča na Nanosu.
From the mentioned crossing, we continue in the direction of Sveti Nikolaj and Gradiška Tura and we still continue on the macadam road which we follow to the spot, where it starts descending.
At the spot, where the road starts descending, cart track branches off to the right, on which we continue the ascent, and there we quickly get to a marked crossing. We again continue left (right Abram and hunting cottage - path joins the path which branched off to the right from ours immediately above the highway), and by the path, we notice a notification that we are entering the bear area. Further, we are for some time ascending on a cart track which is ascending diagonally towards the left. The path ahead (also until now) is relatively poorly marked, and it leads past several unmarked crossings. To not go astray from the right path, it is good that at the crossings we choose the cart track which is ascending diagonally towards the left. After approximately 1 hour of walking, we step on a somewhat wider path (poor road), which we follow to the left, and there in 5 minutes we walk to the church of St. Miklavž.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Hunting cottage Vojkovo, Furlanovo zavetišče pri Abramu, Sveti Hieronim, Grmada (Nanos), Vojkova koča na Nanosu
