Plave - Prižnica

Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Nova Gorica, then continue driving in the direction of Bovec and Tolmin. Continue along the Soča valley, and follow the main road to Plave, where the road to Paljevo starts at a crossroads where the road to Paljevo branches off to the right. As there are no parking spaces at the starting point, we have to park somewhere else, preferably on a suitable spot on the roadside in front of or behind the village, or on the other side of the Soča River near the church or on the outskirts of the village.
b) Drive to Most na Soči and from there drive towards Nova Gorica. When you arrive at Plave, or the crossroads where the road to Paljevo branches off to the left, you are at the beginning of the route described above. As there are no parking spaces at the starting point, we have to park somewhere else, preferably on a suitable spot on the roadside in front of or behind the settlement, or on the other side of the Soča River near the church or on the outskirts of the village.

Path description:
From Plave, follow the asphalt road towards Paljevo. The path initially leads us past a few houses, and then quickly leads us to the left serpentine, where a small object is located on the NOB memorial. We continue along a fairly scenic road, which leads us past a bench to the right serpentine, where the footpath continues in a straight direction to Prižnica (angle 383).
Continue straight ahead on the cart track (continue on Paljevo), which continues for a short time without any major changes in elevation, and then, shortly after crossing the route of the power line, the trail turns slightly to the right and begins to climb laterally. During the cross-climb you reach a small crossroads where you leave cart track and continue right on the forest path. The path continues through the forest and occasionally climbs quite steeply. During the ascent through the forest, we are accompanied by numerous World War I remnants (ruins, caverns, ditches, etc. ), which are now equipped with information boards (under construction at the time of writing). Higher up, the path lies and leads us to the vegetated peak Prižnica, where, in addition to the information board, there is a nice bench for resting.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2015 (March).
