Access to the starting point:
a) From the road Logatec - Idrija, at Godovič, take the road towards Črnji Vrho and Ajdovščina. After Črnji Vrh the road starts to climb in a few serpentines and then flattens out a bit. At this less winding part you will come to a crossroads where the road to Javornik branches off to the left, and at the same place you will see a macadam road on the right and alongside it mountain direction signs for Špičasti vrh. Turn right here and then park in a suitable place along the road.
b) From the Vipava valley, take the Col, and then continue driving towards Idrija. At the point where the road to Javornik turns off to the right, take a sharp left onto a macadam road, along which you will see mountain direction signs. Park in a suitable roadside parking space along the road.
Path description:
From the crossroads at Cenec continue along the macadam road in the route Špičasti vrh. The ascending road first leads under the power line, then turns slightly to the right. At this point, the marked cart track (the path cart track leads to Špiček) and Špičasti vrh) branches off to the left, and we continue on the dirt road. A little further on, when the road from the slopes already passes into a more plateau-like world, we first join the road from Kampelec or the pass between Črni Vrhom and Col quite imperceptibly from the right, and a few 10 m further on we arrive at a slightly larger crossroads, where we continue to the right in the direction of "Kališe in Kobilca" (to the left Zgornji Žgavc). Continue along the mostly gently ascending road, which after a few minutes begins to curve to the left. After a long curve the road flattens out and then turns right, where it continues northwards for some time. The path ahead leads past a number of sinkholes, and the area we are walking through is called Novina. The road continues westwards from here and leads past a sign (a cross) to a crossroads where the road to Brkovnik branches off to the right.
Continue to the left, where the path continues for some time through karst fields and then gradually turns into wods. There is a short easy descent and the road leads to a small crossroads where the marked path from Cenc joins us on the left.
Here, at the cross, continue to the right and follow the path which continues across the meadow in a few minutes to the homestead Na Kobilici, or just to the road a few 10 m in front of the homestead.
Once on the road, follow it to the right, which leads to a less distinct preval with beautiful views of the surrounding hills. Here continue left along cart track in the direction Špičasti vrh. After some 10 steps, cart track splits into two parts, and we continue on the right one (the left cart track leads to the top of a small ski lift), which goes into the forest, where we can already see the markings. Then, after a few minutes of traversing to the right, you will see a mark on one of the trees, which directs you to the left on the slope. Follow the marked trail for a few minutes to the ridge, where the marked trail turns right. Walk along the woded ridge for a short distance and then reach the top of Špičasti vrh, where the path climbs slightly steeper. After a few minutes of climbing, you will reach the top, where there is a wooden lookout tower with a beautiful view on all sides.
