This short route which is perfect for travellers who wish to match a historical approach to the sites of the Great War involving cemeteries and natural caves exploited for war purposes with the ethnographic and natural beauty of the natural environment of the Karst. This route, which is short and easy for all types of walkers thanks to its moderate gradient, is characterised by small hamlets with groups of stone houses built in the Karst style. The pastures surrounded by characteristic dry-stone walls. The typical vegetation, can be enjoyed in spring when wild plums, brooms and forsythia are in bloom, and in autumn when the foliage paints the countryside in shades of gold and deep scarlet.
The stage starts in the Municipality of Komen and heads in the direction of Debela griža, where visitors can admire one of the best-preserved prehistoric hillforts in the entire Karst region. The route then continues towards Volčji Grad, Nadrožica to reach Gorjansko, where the largest Austro-Hungarian military cemetery on Slovenian territory is located, the monumental part of which was completed in 1916. From this point, the trail follows the road toward the Italian border, crosses it, and concludes in the village of Malchina/Mavhinje. This marks the southernmost point of the circular route starting from Nova Gorica. From here, hikers can choose to ascend via the parallel Italian stages or continue toward Trieste/Trst.
