Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Unec and we continue driving towards Unec. On Unec signs for Postojna and Rakov Škocjan point us to the right, on the road which a little further continues directly by the highway. After few kilometers from Unec, we get to a crossroad, where signs for Rakov Škocjan point us to the left on a macadam road, on which we then drive to Hotel Rakov Škocjan.
B) From highway Koper - Ljubljana we go to the exit Postojna, and then we continue driving on the old road towards Logatec. When Postojna ends, at hamlet Ravbarkomanda we turn right in the direction of Unec, Rakek and Rakov Škocjan. After that, when through overpass we cross a railway track, we continue left on the main road, and then through the underpass below the highway we pass on the other side of the highway. For some time we drive by the highway, and then signs for Rakov Škocjan point us to the left on a macadam road, on which we then drive to Hotel Rakov Škocjan.
C) First, we drive to Cerknica, and from there we continue driving towards Unec. In the settlement Podskrajnik we continue left towards Rakov Škocjan, Zelše and industrial zone. In unmarked crossroad in ind. zone we continue straight, and then we quickly get to the settlement Zelše. When the settlement ends, soon ends also asphalt, and the road brings us to a crossroad, where a road branches off to the right towards the hunting lodge Lovski dom LD Cerknica, and we continue straight and we continue driving to Hotel Rakov Škocjan.
Path description:
From the information board, which is situated near the hotel, we continue on the path in the direction of Big natural bridge, so that we bypass the hotel on the right side. We short time continue through the forest by the hotel, and then the path for few steps descends steeper and it brings us to a marked crossing, and from there we continue right in the direction of Little natural bridge (left Big natural bridge and paths Tkalčeva and Rakova pot). Our path Jamarska pot then continues upstream of the river Rak, and a little ahead leads over a small bridge on the other side of the river, where at the crossing we continue right. We continue on the other side of the river, which the path avoids a little higher, where we continue through the forest. Next follow few crossings, where we follow the signs for Little natural bridge (Mali naravni most). Further, the path crosses a driving macadam road, after which we moderately ascend and we get to the spot, where by the next information board, we make a short extension to Little natural bridge, which is mighty standing above the river Rak.
From the Little natural bridge, we return to the last crossing, and then we continue in the direction of the Big natural bridge. We continue on or by the road which is descending a little and then we quickly get to a crossroad, from which we continue straight downwards on a footpath, again in the direction of Big natural bridge. After a short descent, we are again by the river, where the path turns sharply to the left. We short time still continue along the river, and then the path avoids it a little to the left and in a gentle ascent brings us to for a long time closed Hotel Rakov Škocjan, where we started.
