Access to starting point:
A) Highway through Vipava valley we leave at exit for Šempeter and Nova Gorica, and then from the nearby crossroad, we continue straight towards the industrial zone and Italy. A little further, we turn left towards Vrtojba and Miren, and further we follow the signs for Miren, Komen and Opatje Selo. When the settlement Miren ends in few hairpin turns we ascend on a plateau Kraška planota, and we follow the road to the settlement Kostanjevica na Krasu, where at the beginning of the village, a macadam road branches off to the left, where the described path begins. We park on an appropriate place nearby.
B) We drive to Nova Gorica, and then we continue driving towards Šempeter pri Gorici and forward towards Vrtojba and Miren, and further we follow the signs for Miren, Komen and Opatje Selo. When the settlement Miren ends in few hairpin turns we ascend on a plateau Kraška planota, and we follow the road to the settlement Kostanjevica na Krasu, where at the beginning of the village, a macadam road branches off to the left, where the described path begins. We park on an appropriate place nearby.
Path description:
From the main road, we go on a macadam path in the direction of Lokvica and Cerje, and the road on which we walk is at first lightly descending. The path with the exception of few turns leads towards the northwest, where we walk on karst terrain, and occasionally we by the path notice tunnels from the time of the first world war. Further, the path branches off to the left, where in the time of the first world war, there was camp Segeti, and we continue straight on a wider macadam road. The path ahead leads us also past a smaller religious symbol, and then from the right joins also the path past the cave Ruska jama.
From the crossing ahead, the road moderately ascends, and when it flattens we already get to Borojevićev prestol, where there are several memorial plaques.
Only a little further, we leave the road and we continue left in the direction of Pečinka cave (straight Cerje). When we leave the road, the footpath quickly brings us to a cleared military trench, through which we continue to the proximity of the cave, and to the cave follows a shorter descent.
Description and pictures refer to a condition in February 2020.
