The stage starts from the center of Komen heading towards Debela Griža where one can see one of the best-preserved prehistoric hillforts of the entire Karst. It then proceeds towards Volčji Grad, Nadrožica until reaching Gorjansko, where the largest Austro-Hungarian military cemetery in Slovenian territory is located, with its monumental part completed in 1916. From this point, following the road, the path heads towards the Italian border, crossing it and concluding the route by finally reaching the village of Malchina. This is the southernmost point of the loop starting from Nova Gorica. From here, you can decide whether to return through the parallel Italian stages or continue towards Trieste/Trst.
