Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Koper, we go to the exit Razdrto, and then we continue driving on the old road towards Nova Gorica. After Razdrto the road starts steeply descending, and we follow it to a crossroad, where left downwards for public traffic closed road towards Lozice branches off, and the road towards the former building site of highway branches off to the right (mentioned crossroad is located near road sign 7 km, by the crossroad there are also signs for Nanos). Because in mentioned crossroad we are not alowed to turn left or right, is better, that we leave car already few 100 meters higher, on one of the many parking lots by the road.
B) From highway Nova Gorica - Razdrto, we go to the exit Vipava, and then we continue driving on the old road towards Razdrto. Further, we drive through Podnanos and past the turn-off of the road which leads on Nanos. From the mentioned crossroad, we follow the main road only 2 km, and then we get to a crossroad, where sharply right and steep downwards for public traffic closed road towards Lozice branches off, and to the left a road towards the former building site of highway (mentioned crossroad is located near road sign 7 km, by the crossroad there are also signs for Nanos). Because in mentioned crossroad we are not alowed to turn left or right, is better, that we leave car already few 100 meters lower, on one of the many parking lots by the road.
Path description:
From the starting point at first we walk to in the description to the starting point mentioned crossroad, and from there we continue on an ascending road, by which there are also signs for Nanos. The road at first steeply ascends, after that for some time flattens and leads us below viaducts of the nearby highway. Some 10 meters ahead, we get to at the unmarked crossroad, where we continue sharply right on the road which gets very close a highway.
When on the right side we notice transmitters (transmitters in fog won't be seen), on the left side of the road, we notice signs for Nanos, which point us to the left. Further, we are ascending through a lane of bushes to the nearby of a meadow, where the path quickly brings us to the nearby "source". Above the source path turns left in low forest, through which starts at first gently, and then moderately ascending. Higher, we reach a little wider path, which we immediately leave because blazes point us to left on a gradually steeper footpath. Some 10 meters higher we cross another cart track, and the path which gradually turns to the left, already becomes a little steeper. Next follows a diagonal ascent towards the left and the path brings us to "loziško počivalo", where from the left joins the path from Podnanos (starting point Hrašče).
Here we continue right in the direction of the hunting cottage, and relatively wide path, in numerous zig-zags leads over steeper and steeper slopes. A relatively steep path, occasionally leads over quite panoramic slopes, from which a nice view opens up towards Vipavska brda. Higher, we get to a little more demanding part, where otherwise wide path ascends diagonally over a short exposed slope (mainly in snow and ice is dangerous for slipping). Above exposed traverse we get to a marked crossing, where we continue straight on a wide path (left downwards Podnanos and Vipava, right mountain hut Vojkova koča past Strmec). Further, we are moderately ascending on a wide path, on which in good 10 minutes of additional walking, we get to the hunting cottage Vojkovo.
From the hunting cottage, we continue to the nearby asphalt road and we follow it to the right, to the nearby Vrata, after which we step on the southwest part of plateau Nanos. On the other side of Vrata the road starts descending, and we follow it only for a short time because then blazes point us left on a marked footpath which descends through a pine forest. After a short descent, we return on the road and we follow it to the left. On the road, we walk to the nearby right turn, at the end of which marked path branches off to the left. We continue on a cart track which starts lightly ascending, we walk there only few 10 meters and then on the right side we notice poorly visible beginning of the footpath which gradually starts descending diagonally towards Šembijska bajta.
At the mentioned cottage we return on the road, on which we continue. A little higher we get to triangle crossroad, where the road to Vipava branches off to the left, and we continue slightly right, on a gradually a little steeper road. The road which continues through the forest, then rises for almost 150 altitude meters and it brings us to a crossroad, where we reach a marked path Abram - Vojkova koča. Here we continue left, on the road which starts lightly descending. After few minutes, we step out of the forest, where at the crossroad we continue right towards the nearby hunting lodge.
From the hunting lodge, near of which is large parking lot, few meters we continue on the road, and then signs for agrotourism Abram point us to the left on a narrower road, on which we walk to the nearby cottage.
