Jamce - Sinji vrh (west path)

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Ajdovščina, and then we continue driving towards Col. After a short ascent Ajdovščina ends, and further we are ascending diagonally on the road which is rising above Vipava valley. Good 50 meters before the road sign 5 km, we will on the right side of the road notice suitable place, where we can park.
B) From Godovič or Kalce pri Logatcu we drive to Col, and from there we continue driving towards Ajdovščina. At the road sign 5 km starts the described footpath, and we park about 50 meters ahead on an appropriate place on the opposite side of the road.

Path description:
At the road sign 5 km we notice the beginning of the cart track which from the main road branches off uphill. The path at first runs on a cart track, and then before a small torrent stream forest path branches off to the right, which after few steps turns left and crosses already mentioned intermittent well. On the other side, the path ascends a little steeper, and from the left joins a little wider footpath. We continue slightly right, on the path which quickly brings us out of the forest on a little larger clearing, where the path partly vanishes. Through the clearing, we continue straight upwards, and when the path returns into the forest it becomes again easy to follow and well visible. In the forest, the path turns slightly to the left and returns on a cart track, and there in few minutes we get to the spot, where we join the other, a little better beaten cart track, where another path from the main road Ajdovščina - Col joins.
We continue straight, after that on a smaller plain slightly right on a slightly ascending cart track, and from which we soon go right on a gradually steeper footpath (on the latter crossing we can also continue straight on a less steep path). Next follows few minutes of steeper path, and then we join the marked path from Ajdovščina.
We continue right, and at the nearby marked crossing once again right in the direction of Podrta gora. The path ahead in few hairpin turns ascends to cliffs of Podrta gora, where it turns right, and then with nice views on Vipava valley brings us to the inscription box and a stamp of Podrta gora.
From the inscription box, we continue on a marked path, which brings us into a smaller valley and on the nearby marked crossing, where we continue left in the direction of the path Pot po Robu (right Kovk on the path Pot po Robu). We continue by the edge of plateau on or by the ridge of Podrta gora. From the highest point of Podrta gora follows a short descent and the path brings us into a smaller valley, where by a poorly marked crossing there is the next inscription box, which is attached near the plague column.
Before the religious symbol we continue right (straight marked path Pot po robu, also Sinji vrh over Črne stene) in the direction of Sinji vrh, and then immediately after the religious symbol left on a beaten, but further not marked footpath. Next follows a short light diagonal descent, and then we get to a little larger meadow, where the footpath vanishes. Through the meadow we continue diagonally towards the right, where we quickly get to an abandoned house. Just before the house we cross the road, and we continue to yard of the house, so that we bypass the house on the right side. Behind the house, we step on the road, on which we continue, and it starts turning to the left. After few minutes, we reach a wider macadam road, on which runs marked path Pot po Angelski gori, and we follow it to the left (right Sinji vrh - east path).
We continue on the macadam road which continues through a grassy valley. After few minutes of additional walking, we get to a smaller crossroad, where we continue right (left road at few minutes distant house ends) on a little worse forest road. Immediately after the crossroad one branch of the path Pot po Angelski gori branches off to the left, and we still continue on the road, by which there are still signs for path Pot po Angelski gori. The slightly ascending road passes into the forest and soon brings us to a smaller crossroad, where a worse road branches off to the right. Here we continue straight or slightly left, and after the beech tree, on which we notice number 33, we continue slightly right, on a worse road which after few meters of descent ends. At the spot, where the road ends or changes into a cart track, we continue straight on a footpath which for some time ascends a little steeper. The footpath soon turns a little to the left and then after a shorter diagonal ascent widens into a cart track, and it brings us to the memorial and a smaller cottage. We bypass the cottage on the right side, and on a wider cart track in few minutes we get to an asphalt road, where we join the marked path.
We follow the road to the right, and there past the bench with a table we get to a crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Sinji vrh (if we continue left we get to the main road Col - Predmeja). Next follows a little steeper ascent and the road past residential houses and higher past a left hairpin turn brings us to boarding house Sinji vrh, where the road ends. At the boarding house is a stamp of SPP, and before the boarding house we continue right on a footpath, on which in approximately 3 minutes of additional walking, we ascend on panoramic Sinji vrh.
