Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Kozina and follow a road ahead in the direction of Reka. Only a little after the settlement Materija, we will notice signs for Skadanščina, which point us to the right on narrower and in the last part also ascending road. The mentioned road, we follow to Skadanščina, where at the beginning of the village we also park.
Path description:
From the starting point, we walk to the center of the village, and there at the crossroad we continue left in the direction of Slavnik. The road after the village loses an asphalt covering and after few minutes of walking splits into two parts. We continue on the right upper road in the direction of Slavnik (left road leads towards Mala vrata), and it gradually passes into the forest and slowly changes into a cart track. We continue the ascent on a gentle cart track, and it leads us past numerous and well-marked crossings. A little higher, the cart track entirely flattens, and then it gradually starts ascending steeper. A moderately steep cart track, higher crosses a forest road and then gradually starts changing into a wide and easy to follow footpath. The path ahead brings us to the information board, which marks the beginning of natural monument Slavnik, and only few steps further it comes out of the forest on panoramic grassy slopes. Here the path turns slightly towards the right and after approximately 10 minutes of additional walking brings us to the summit of Slavnik.
