Interesting circuit that begins in the hamlet of Fuzine, a five-minute drive from Aidussina, in the locality of Izvir Hublja (sources of the Hubelj river). In this season, after days of heavy rain, the noise of the crashing water is deafening and the spectacle is fascinating. Having left the car, there is parking for around 7/8 cars, we return to the start of the path which rises up immediately next to the waterfall, after crossing the bridge over the river. The route, perfectly marked and maintained, climbs alongside a Gostilna and climbs relentlessly to reach the crest of the long karst ridge that dominates Aidussina and the entire Vipacco valley. The view towards the south gradually opens up, dominating the entire valley with the town of Lokovec down there. After an hour and a quarter and about 600 m of altitude difference we reach the crest with a small votive tabernacle, summit book and bench. At this point we cross path no. 1 (Slovenian karst crossing from Predmeja to Col) and follow it eastwards. After a few hundred metres, a short path branches off to the left which in five minutes leads us to a strange stone spiral whose energetic properties seem to be recognized by the locals. However, we ignore more certain data. Having retraced our steps and this time deviating to the right, we quickly reach a large natural window, the Okno, of considerable beauty and certainly worthy of a small digression from our route. This then continues following the crest of this infinite rock balcony overlooking the valley below. The view, even today with anthracite sky, extends far reaching the sea. The show follows us along our slight ups and downs chasing this blade of rock that seems to never end. After about an hour and a half from Okno we reach a stone capital with a crucifix carved into it. It is our arrival point that indicates the beginning of the downhill path. This takes advantage of a short "gap" in the high rock face to flow down the valley with a serpentine that reaches the edge of the woods and smooths out into a gentler path until it ends in a comfortable track that takes us back to the car park.
