Hunting cottage Vojkovo - Suhi vrh (Nanos) (gentle path)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the Ljubljana - Koper motorway, take the Razdrto exit and continue along the old road through Razdrto towards the Vipava valley. After a few km downhill on a rather winding road, you will come to a junction where the road to Nanos branches off to the right. Take the road mentioned above, which begins to climb steeply and leads us higher up, where the road is already laid, to a small crossroads where a macadam road branches off to the right, leading to a nearby hunting lodge. Continue in the direction of the hunting lodge and park there in a large macadam parking lot.
b) From the motorway Nova Gorica - Ljubljana, take the exit Vipava and follow the road towards Podnanos. From Podnanos, continue along the old road towards Razdrt. Soon you will come to a crossroads where the road to Nanos branches off sharply to the left. We take the road, which begins to climb steeply and leads us higher, when the road is already laid, to a small crossroads where a macadam road branches off to the right, leading to a nearby hunting lodge. Continue in the direction of the hunting lodge and park there in a large macadam parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, first walk to the hunting lodge, then continue in the direction of St Hieronymus and Vojka's Lodge on Nanos. After a few steps into the forest, the path begins to climb gently. After a short climb, the path leads to the undistinguished peak of Strmec, from which a short descent follows. Just a little further on, the path leads us out of the forest onto grassy slopes, which are occasionally overgrown with shrubs and individual pines. The path, which is light and hardly climbing, then joins the road for a short time, but leaves it after a few steps. The path then leaves the road a little to the right and begins to climb moderately over the increasingly scenic slopes of Nanos. Here, an unmarked path joins from the right, branching off to the right at a slightly lower level. The path ahead becomes a little steeper and, after a few minutes of further walking, leads us to the church of St Hieronymus, visible from afar.
From the church, continue slightly to the right along the path, which is joined just a little higher up on the right by the path from Razdrteg. Continue in the direction of Vojkova huts along the path, which leads us only a few steps further to a less visible crossroads, where the unmarked path to Grmada branches off to the left. Continue slightly to the right on the marked path, which climbs for some time parallel to the road. The way forward is a little further to the right and passes to the scenic north-western edge of Nanos. Here, the so-called Janez's path almost imperceptibly joins us from the right, and we continue straight along the wide path that leads us towards the transmitters on Nanos. Just before the transmitters, the path turns to the left, descends into the lane of a forest and then, passing the monument of Janko Premrl Vojko, leads us to Vojko's hut on Nanos.
From the hut, continue along the marked path towards Suhega vrha. The path first crosses the meadow behind the hut and then climbs for a short time. There is some walking with short descents and ascents to a grassy slope with a view. The path then returns to the forest and begins a steeper descent. After a few minutes of descent, you reach a marked crossroads, where you continue to the left in the direction of Suhega vrh (straight down Strana). After a few minutes of further walking, you enter a forest road, which soon leads you to a hunting lodge. Continue along the road, which soon turns off a steep path to the right. Continue straight ahead, and the road soon leads to a crossroads where you turn right towards Suhega vrha. The road starts to descend a little further, and then you see a marked footpath that turns sharp right off the road. Take the footpath and within a few minutes, a slightly steep climb leads to Suhi vrh.
