Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper, take the exit Kozina and then continue to Trieste. Before crossing the national border, you will arrive in the village of Krvavi Potok, where you will turn right towards Vrhpolje. Continue for another 100 m and then you will reach a small crossroads, at which you will see the mountain signs for Kokoš, Veliko Gradišče and the Joškovo road. Park in a suitable place at the crossroads.
Path description:
From the junction where you parked, turn onto the dirt road (direction Kokoš and Veliko Gradišče) and start climbing up it. After walking for about 100 m, you will reach a small crossroads where you continue to the right on a gradually steeper road. From the road, which climbs moderately, you will at first have views only of the nearby hills, and higher up towards Slavnik. After about half an hour's walk, the road levels off and then joins the asphalt road (the road leads from the village of Vrhpolje) only a few 10 m further on. Continue straight ahead here and walk past the nearby ruined church of St Thomas and the well-kept cemetery to a marked crossroads, located a few metres further on from the abandoned playground and nearby buildings.
At the crossroads, before which the asphalt ends, continue straight in the route Veliko Gradišče (left Kokoš) and continue the ascent along the marked mountain path, which begins to climb moderately through the forest. At a higher altitude, join the wider path, which will take you up to the summit in 10 minutes.
