Opis poti
Nanos poznamo vsi. Razlika je verjetno samo ta, ali smo se do zdaj mimo njega samo peljali proti Primorski ali pa smo se tam tudi ustavili in se podali na njegov razgledni vrh.
Nanos je 1313m visok hrib, ki ločuje celinski del Slovenije od Primorja.Je 12 km dolga in do 6 km široka kraška planota s strmo odrezanim robom, imenovanim Pleša. Poleg Snežnika je najbolj značilna gora na Notranjskem. Iz Nanosa se razteza čudovit pogled v smeri slovenskega dela Alp ter v smeri Snežnika in Primorja. Planota je kot pohodniška točka dostopna tudi za družine z majhnimi otroki.
Če se na izlet podate iz parkirišča pri Razdrtem, prečkate nadvoz nad avtocesto in usmerjevalne table vam kažejo pot levo od veternic. Grobo od tu ločimo strmo in položno pot. Strma vam bo vzela vsaj eno uro manj časa, ker je tudi pol krajša, vendar je z razlogom označena kot je. Mi bi jo priporočili za družine z otroki, ki so vajeni hoje z malček plezanja in s ščepcem prepadnih razgledov- se pravi nekje od starosti 7ih let naprej. Če se odločite za položnejšo boste do vrha potrebovali 2.5h gre pa tukaj pot mimo luštne kapelice Sv. Hieronima. V vsakem primeru priporočamo ustrezno pohodno obutev.
Površje planote je razjedeno v podolgovate dole, vrtače in kopaste vrhove. Prevladujejo nadmorske višine okrog 1100 m, zahodna polovica je nižja (800-950 m) in manj kamnita.
Gozdnato planoto obiskujejo planinci, kolesarji in jadralni padalci. Nanos prečkata Slovenska planinska transverzala in Slovenska geološka pot. Na razgledni točki Pleša (1262 m) stoji televizijski pretvornik, v bližini je Vojkova koča.
Na leto je 80 dni s povprečno dnevno temperaturo pod lediščem. V ledenih jamah (Veliki trški ledenik, Slapenski ledenik, Podraški ledenik) so v preteklosti sekali led in ga prodajali v Trst. Značilen vremenski pojav je burja, sunki včasih presežejo hitrost 100 km/h, zaradi burje so drevesne krošnje na obrobju deformirane. Kljub obilnim padavinam je planota brez površinsko tekočih vod, večina vode teče podzemsko proti Vipavski dolini.
Interesting Facts
The Vipava Valley is caught on both sides between high karst plateaus, with a typical sub-Mediterranean climate. By the Vipava River, which flows into the Soča River and then into the Adriatic Sea, the influence of the Mediterranean climate spreads into the valley, while the sharp north and warm south create conditions for diversity and uniqueness of plants.
What about the strong “burja” wind (bora wind) that blows here?
According to legend, Theodosius came to pray for help in the battle against western Roman Emperor Eugenius in 394. In the end, Theodosius’s army prevailed in the Battle of Frigidus, fought on the fields of the valley and, as the story goes, it was our very own “burja” (bora wind) that helped him win the throne.

Since the wind always blows around here, do not forget to bring a headband to protect your ears :).
The Burja is a powerful northeastern wind that greatly shapes the life in the valley. Legend has it that at one point it even turned around the wheel of history. Even though its gusts overturn and blow away everything not properly fastened or bolted, burja is a beloved part of this locality as it clears the air and scatters the clouds. The gale force of the burja wind appeals to the thrill-seeking visitors of the Vipava Valley (Source: vipavskadolina.si website).
A Natural Phenomenon
The Burja occurs over the Vipava Valley when a high pressure cell is present over Central Europe and generally pushes the cold air from the inland toward the hills and into the lowlands. It flows towards the valley down the slopes of Gora, Čaven and Nanos in gusts. When that happens, the hilltops are topped with distinct clouds, hats as they are called, or zastava (meaning “flag”) as the locals like to refer to them. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the valley, the skies are clear. Occasionally, burja will evolve due to a cyclone, in which case it will bring rain. Burja gusts can exceed 200 km/h, with the highest unofficial gust speed having been recorded at 235 km/h. Generally it occurs during winter months, but it is not unusual in other seasons as well.
