Round tour from Razdrto To the most beautiful mountain of the Slovenian Karst Traveling north on the highway towards Koper, one immediately notices a distinctive rocky mountain range just behind Postojna: the Nanos. It breaks southwards with steep cliffs towards the small village of Razdrto, and above the steep eastern slope, a huge transmission facility stretches its masts into the sky, which, however, does not diminish the beauty of our mountain! The futuristically decorated summit is called Pleša; it is not the highest but the most scenic peak in the Nanos massif – on clear days, the view extends from Triglav to the Gulf of Trieste! A cozy hut at the summit ensures the physical well-being of Nanos visitors. What makes the special charm of this mountain is the stunningly beautiful path: A well-maintained trail winds through the initially very unwelcoming southern slope, starting with gentle switchbacks through shady shrub forest, then over easy rocks with fantastic deep views. The descent then leads over the scenic ridge high above the Vipava Valley to the Romanesque-style mountain church of Sv. Hieronim (built at the beginning of the 17th century) and through the equally exciting southwest side – truly a tour of superlatives! Those who head to Nanos in spring experience a diverse flora, where peonies and blue irises are the undisputed queens.

    It is a long gravel road to the top, in a nice forest with enough shade during the hot Slovenian summer. The top of Javornik has nice views, to whats to come on the via alpina. Markings are good, the trail is quite easy to follow (just go up while staying on the gravel road, until you cannot anymore). The way down isnt that nice, lots of loose rocks, however you get rewarded with a nice little town with an open supermarket (till 19:00 on a weekday mid June '26).

    Das kann ich bestätigen, die Angabe leicht ist nicht korrekt. Die alpinen Passagen sind für Kinder eher ungeeignet und Vorerfahrung ist sehr hilfreich und empfehlenswert. Sehr schöne und abwechslungsreiche Tour.

    From Matavun to Senozece with a detour up Mala Vremsica. Very nice walk, rich with butterflies ! The climb was steep but not long. Nice to take some height compared to previous day. We slept in a hotel in Senozece, nothing remarkable there except that we could pack in some bananas and cash.

    Sehr schön aber auf keinen Fall als leicht anzusehen es geht sehr steil und teilweise mit echt grenzwertigen Klettereinlagen. Für kleine Kinder ist das auf jedenfalls nichts Die Aussicht ist großartig und der Weg macht Spaß
