We leave the coastal highway at exit for Pulj, Poreč and Šmarje. Further, we drive on the main road towards Šmarje, at the roundabout by OMV gas station we leave it and we go to the exit in the direction towards Marezige and Vanganel. Further, we drive towards Vanganel, but only to a crossroad, where the road branches off to the right towards the settlement Kampel (before the crossroad there is a bus stop Kapelca). We turn right and then we park on an appropriate place by the crossroad.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the asphalt road which leads towards the settlement Kampel, and still before the mentioned village we leave it and we continue right in the direction of local marks. Immediately after the crossroad, we go through a smaller bridge, and then we for some time continue on a gently sloping asphalt road which few minutes ahead brings us into the forest. In the forest, we at first continue straight, and when the asphalt ends, we choose the lower path. Further, we walk on the macadam road which we leave at the left turn and we continue right in the direction of the path Pot Vinka Lovrečiča on Pomjan. The path continues through the forest, and at the crossings we follow the blazes. Higher, the path leads us past a smaller source, after which we cross a torrent, and then follows some ascending through a dense forest. Next follows the ascent on a well-settled path, and then we get to a marked crossing, where we join the path from Šmarje and Strunjan.
We continue towards Pomjan and Marezige, on the path which crosses slopes towards the left. At the crossings, we continue straight, or in the direction where blazes point us to, and from the left joins also the old path. Follows some more of the crossing, and then we get to the panoramic part, from where a nice view opens up towards Pomjan and surrounding hills. A little further, the path brings us to the first house, and behind it we step on a worse road, on which we ascend to the center of the village.
When we reach the asphalt, we, continue left and past NOB monument we walk to the parish church of St. Jurij in Pomjan. From the church, we continue on the road towards Marezige, and at the end of the village, when the road already descends a little, we get to a viewpoint with a panorama board.
