Predmeja - Veliki Modrasovec

Access to the starting point:
From the expressway Razdrto - Nova Gorica take the exit Ajdovščina and follow the road towards the village Lokavec (Lokavac can be reached from the centre of Ajdovščina, or from the old road Ajdovščina - Nova Gorica, where turn right at Cesta). From Lokavac, continue along the ascending winding road in the direction of Predmeja. Follow this road to the crossroads where the road to Colo branches off to the right. Park in the parking lot in the immediate vicinity of the crossroads.
The starting point can also be reached from Godovič, via Črni vrh and Colo to Predmeja. In this case, drive to the crossroads where the road to Ajdovščina branches off to the left just after the end marker Predmeja. Park in the parking lot close to the junction.

Path description:
From the parking lot at the crossroads, follow the footpath towards the Cottage at Čavno. The path first climbs past the memorial plaque to Ressel Jožef, then passes into the forest, where it begins to climb, first moderately and then steeply. Higher up, the path leads to a small lookout point (view Predmeja) at which you can see a bench and a thermometer.
At the bench we also join the wide cart track, which turns into a footpath a little higher up, which soon starts to climb steeply again. A relatively steep path, along which you can see a number of large men, leads you higher up to a dirt road, which you follow to the left. The ascent continues along the above-mentioned road, which briefly becomes asphalt. Higher up, the road is laid and leads us out of the forest onto the viewing slopes, from which we have a beautiful view of Golake, the Nanos and Vipava valleys, and later the Adriatic Sea. Follow this road, which slowly turns to the right and which even drops slightly in the last part, all the way to the Čavno hut.
After the hut, the signs for Modrasovec and Golake direct us to the right to a meadow, across which we climb crosswise into the forest. Once in the wods, quickly cross the undistinguished ridge of Maly Modrasovec (here an unmarked trail branches off to the right to Mali Modrasovec for 5 minutes), and we continue straight ahead on cart track, which descends slightly and turns slightly to the right. Just a little further on, we come to a marked crossroads where we continue straight on in the direction of Modrasovec (slightly to the right Golaki). We continue our ascent along a wider, but rather overgrown path which gradually passes to the right side of the ridge. From the wide path, or worse cart track, a marked footpath soon branches off to the left, and within a few minutes of further walking you will reach the top of Veliki Modrasovac.
