Access to starting point:
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, on which in few minutes we get to Kampel. In the mentioned village, the road starts ascending, and at the crossroads, we follow the blazes. The road higher flattens and leaves the village, and it leads us through the panoramic part. When higher the road turns sharply right, we leave it and only few steps before the turn, we continue on the bottom road, from which we soon go left (on part, where we go left, there are well visible blazes, and signs for Pomjan are blurred).
Few 10 strides ahead we go from the bad road which leads towards the private house, right and we start ascending on a forest path, which is used for a descent by mountain bikers. Next follows a quite steep ascent on the path, by which we notice only few old, partly already faded blazes.
Higher, we join a newer path, which we follow to the left, and at the crossings we follow the blazes. Next follows traversing of slopes towards the left, where at first we still walk through the forest 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.
