Osp - Socerb Castle (via Spodnji kras)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Črni Kal and follow the road ahead towards Črni Kal and Osp. At the beginning of the ascent towards Črni Kal road towards the village Osp branches off to the left. The road then runs by columns of viaduct and after a short descent brings us in the village Osp, where the described path begins.

Path description:
We walk into center of the village and then we ascend to the fire station, where we continue left towards the church. Only few steps before the church, the path turns sharply right and it ascends to the last houses in the village, where blazes point us left on a cart track which ascends above the village. After a short ascent marked path leaves the cart track and continues right into a little more overgrown forest. Further, we are ascending on a moderately steep path, which soon passes out of the forest on panoramic grassy slopes. The steepness then decreases and the path brings us to a worse macadam road. Here on rock we notice a blaze, which points us through a meadow towards the village Kastelec. The path ahead is at first descending gently through a wide meadow, and then on a wider cart track it ascends to an asphalt road in the mentioned village. We continue left and we follow the road good 10 minutes to a crossroad, where right upwards a road branches off towards Socerb. The road then quickly brings us to the village Socerb, where past the chapel it quickly brings us to the summit.
