Directions
By Car
SSNP has two land entrances. Lera is reached by a steep cobble road that branches off to the right at Seča from the highest point of the thoroughfare linking Lucija with the Sečovlje border crossing. At the end of the paved part of the road is a crossing (Pick&Place building on the right); straight ahead from here, the main entrance to the Park can be seen at the bridge over the Jernej Channel. Parking place is provided at the entrance. Visitors are kindly requested to approach the administrative building by foot or bicycle, although access is allowed by motor vehicles as well. The Museum of Salt-making is reached by the tarmac road, which branches off a few metres after the Sečovlje checkpoint to the right just before the bridge over the Dragonja River towards the Fontanigge area.
You are kindly advised to leave your vehicle at the gate opposite the pipeline over the Dragonja River. From there, driving IS AT YOUR OWN RISK and is, as a rule, prohibited by SSNP's decree.
Public Transport
Occasionally, visitors are conveyed to SSNP by the "Solinarka" boat.
The two accesses from the sea (only for organised groups that begin their visit at Piran or other ports) are:
• pier on the Giassi Channel (access to the Fontanigge and Museum of Salt-making areas),
• pier on the Grande Channel (Drnica; access to the Lera area).
On foot
For the time being, no local public transport is available from Slovenian littoral towns to SSNP. From Lucija, visitors can reach SSNP following the coastal road which passes through Marina di Portorose, past the camping place and going on along the road boarding the Jernej Channel.
