Access to starting point:
From highway Razdrto - Nova Gorica we go to the exit Ajdovščina and follow the road ahead towards the village Lokavec (to Lokavec we come from the center of Ajdovščina, or from old road Ajdovščina - Nova Gorica, where at settlement Cesta we turn right). From Lokavec we continue driving on ascending winding road in the direction of Predmeja. The mentioned road, we follow to a crossroad, where the road branches off to the right towards Col. We park on a parking lot right next to a crossroad.
To the starting point, we can also come from Godovič, over Črni vrh and Col to Predmeja. In this case, we drive to a crossroad, where just after the sign end of Predmeja left downwards the road branches off towards Ajdovščina. We park on a parking lot right next to a crossroad.
Path description:
From the parking lot by the crossroad, we go on a footpath in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na Čavnu. The path at first ascends past memorial plates of Ressel Jožef, and then it passes into the forest, where it starts at first moderately, after that steeply ascending. Higher, the path brings us to a smaller vantage point (a view on Predmeja) by which we notice a bench and a thermometer.
At the bench we also join a wide cart track, and a little higher it turns into a footpath which soon again starts ascending steeply. A relatively steep path, by which we notice numerous bigger cairns, higher brings us to a macadam road which we follow to the left. We continue the ascent on the mentioned road, and for a short time it gets an asphalt covering. Higher, the road flattens and out of the forest brings us on panoramic slopes, from which a nice view opens up on Golaki, Nanos and Vipava valley, and later also on Adriatic Sea. This road which is slowly turning towards the right and which in the last part even descends a little, we follow all the way to the mountain hut Koča na Čavnu.
Behind the mountain hut signs for Modrasovec and Golaki point us to the right on a meadow, through which we diagonally ascend in the forest. When we step into the forest, we quickly step on an indistinct ridge of Mali Modrasovec. Here we will on the right side notice poorly beaten unmarked footpath, on which in 5 minutes of additional walking, we ascend to the summit Mali Modrasovec.
