Vrbiški dol - Koča na Kozleku

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper take the exit Postojna and follow the road towards Rijeka and Ilirska Bistrica. At Ilirska Bistrica, the road to Sviščaki turns sharp left. Continue towards Sviščaki and park in the parking lot at the road sign between 7. 5 and 8 km.

Path description:
From the parking lot continue on the road, which leads us after 50m to the mountain signs for Kozlek. Here, continue right slightly down the macadam road, which you follow for 10 minutes to the place where the path to Kozlek branches off to the right. The well-marked path towards Kozlek soon turns and begins to climb. Just a little further on, the path from the village of Jablanica joins us from the right. Continue along the path, which climbs moderately along a woded ridge. Soon we reach the viewing slopes, from which we have a beautiful view to the south, and to the east we can already see the Srednji vrh, which is the peak of Kozjek. Here the path descends for a short time, and then, in a moderate ascent through the forest, leads us to Srednji vrh.
From Srednji vrh, the path slowly descends to the saddle between the two peaks and then begins to climb again, initially on an uncultivated slope and higher through the forest. When you reach the Kozlek hut, the view opens up to the south and east. From the hut to the summit is only a few steps of easy walking.

On the way: Srednji vrh pri Kozleku (923m)
