Predmeja - Sinji vrh (Pot po Robu)

Access to starting point:
A) From central Slovenia at first we drive in Logatec, and then we continue driving in the direction of Idrija. In Kalce at Logatec we turn left in the direction of Col, and then we continue driving on a winding road towards Col. In Colu we turn right and then after 100 meters left in the direction of Predmeja. Further, we drive on occasionally a little narrower and also partly still winding road to Predmeja. In Predmeja we will notice signs for path Pot po Robu and by them monument "Materi Gori" and large macadam parking lot.
B) 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. When the road flattens a little, we come to the crossroad, where we continue right towards Predmeja and Col. On the road towards Col we drive only 100 meters and then on the right side we notice a larger parking lot and signposts for path Pot po Robu.

Path description:
From the starting point at first we walk to the vantage point, and then we continue left in the direction of the path "Pot po Robu". At first poorly visible path slightly descends, and then passes into the forest, through which it gradually starts ascending. We quickly ascend almost to the top of 889 meters high peak (on maps without a name), and then we start descending. The path Pot po Robu continues through a grassy meadow, in the middle of which grow individual bushes. A little further, the path turns slightly to the right and brings us by the edge of steep and partly also precipitous slopes. The path and the slope then flatten out, and we continue on a footpath which crosses numerous meadows (in spring and summer the meadows are full of flowers). Occasionally hard to follow path, which for some time runs on slopes dangerous for slipping, higher brings us to a rocky shoulder, which is precipitously descending towards Vipava valley. The path ahead for some time returns on a plateau terrain, and then starts ascending steeply by the edge of the cliffs (mainly in wet is also dangerous for slipping). The path then brings us from bushes on a panoramic grassy slope, on which we in few minutes ascend to the summit of Dolski maj.
From Dolski maj we continue on a marked and occasionally a little more overgrown path towards the southeast. The path quickly descends into the forest, through which we for some time continue. Eventually, the path flattens and brings us out of the forest on again more panoramic slopes. We continue by the edge of plateau on again more panoramic path which continues without large changes in altitude. A little further, we cross a lane of a forest, and the path then brings us to a wooden column with signposts and information boards. Here we continue a little to the right towards the viewpoint Otliški maj (path straight bypasses the peak Otliški maj). The path ahead ascends steeper and in 5 minutes of additional walking brings us on a panoramic peak.
From Otliški maj we descend on a panoramic grassy slope and we quickly join the path which on the left side bypassed the mentioned peak. We continue in the same direction and only a little further we get to a marked crossing, where from the right side joins the path from the source of Hubelj.
We continue in the direction of Sinji vrh and window Otliško okno, and the path brings us to the spot, where the path branches off to the left towards the stone snail, to which there is only a minute of walking. We continue straight and in few 10 strides of additional walking, we get to information boards by the window Otliško okno. From the signposts, we can descend to the window through which a nice view opens up on Vipava valley.
From the window we continue on a path in the direction of Sinji vrh. The path ahead quickly comes out of the forest and it brings us on panoramic slopes, on which we are by the edge of the cliffs ascending in the southeastern direction. After approximately 10 minutes of walking from the window the path splits into two parts. At the spot, where grazing fence makes a sharp left turn we leave a wide path and we go right on a bad but marked path, which after five minutes of ascent brings us on Navrše.
From the top, the path descends to a small saddle, where we again join the path which bypasses Navrše. The path ahead crosses a lane of a forest and a little further brings us to a pleasant viewpoint, where it joins the path over Stara baba. Here at power line poles blazes for Sinji vrh point us to the left on a cart track which at first slightly ascends and then it is gradually descending. When the path ascends we again step on the road, where we continue left upwards (to the right, the road at the last house in the village ends). After few minutes walk and on the road we come to a crossroad, where we continue right and then after few meters once again right. The road which is further a little steeper ascending higher brings us to another crossroad, where we again continue right. Next follows 700 more meters of walking on the road to boarding house Sinji vrh. Here the road ends and we continue on an unmarked path towards Sinji vrh, which we reach after three minutes. Orientation in the last part isn't difficult.
