Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Koper, we go to the exit Divača, and then we continue driving towards Divača. Still before Divača, we turn right towards the settlement Dolnje Ležeče, and from there we drive further. Only few meters before we get to a crossroad, where a road towards the village Goriče pri Famljah branches off to the right, we turn left towards Vremščica. At the next crossroad, to which we get to already after few meters, we again continue left and then immediately behind the railway track once again left. From the spot, where we left an asphalt road, we drive for approximately 1 km, and then we park on an appropriate place, at the smaller crossroad.
Path description:
From the starting point, we go on a marked path, which at first ascends through a lane of a forest and then gradually passes on more panoramic grassy slopes. Further, we are ascending on a relatively steep and partly grassy cart track, from which beautiful views opening up towards the valley of river Reka and surrounding hills. Higher, the cart track turns to the right, and we continue straight on a footpath which higher turns to the left and crosses a lane of a low forest. The path then returns on a panoramic slope and ascends diagonally on the ridge of Vremščica, where it joins the bad road which we follow to the right. We walk on the road only few steps, and then blazes point us slightly to the right on a footpath which continues through a pine forest. The forest quickly ends, and the path returns on the road which we soon leave. We continue on a marked path, which for some time continues through the forest, and for some time on panoramic, mostly grassy slopes. Eventually we get to a crossing, where from the right also the path from the village Famlje joins (also the path from Škocjan caves through the gorge of river Reka).
Here we continue slightly left on a less distinct cart track which gradually passes into the forest and changes into an easy to follow footpath. A little higher also the path from Senožeče joins, and we continue straight and we ascend through one more lane of a forest. Higher the forest gets thinner, and an increasingly panoramic path quickly brings us to the summit of Vremščica.
