Gornja Radgona (OŠ Gornja Radgona) - Viewpoint Kapela

Access to starting point:
A) We leave Pomurska highway at exit Lenart v Slovenskih goricah, and then we follow the road in the direction of Gornja Radgona. When we get to Gornja Radgona, in the center of the town we turn right in the direction of bus stop, cemetery and primary school. After the bus stop, the road starts ascending, and we are driving there to a larger parking lot between primary school Gornja Radgona and cemetery Gornja Radgona.
B) We drive to Radenci, and then we follow the road towards Gornja Radgona, where in the center of the town we turn sharply left towards the bus stop, primary school and cemetery. After the bus stop, the road starts ascending, and we are driving there to a larger parking lot between primary school Gornja Radgona and cemetery Gornja Radgona.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road or sidewalk ahead, where we quickly get to the settlement Hercegovščak. A little further, the sidewalk ends, and we go left towards Police, where past a pond we get to the settlement Norički Vrh. Next follows some of a steeper ascent, and when the road turns right, a short path branches off sharply to the left on panoramic Norički vrh (5 minutes), and we continue on the asphalt road. A little further, we get to Police, where we go past few houses, but mostly the path runs among vineyards.
Further follow few smaller crossroads, where we follow the main road, and when we start lightly descending from the right joins also the second path from Gornja Radgona, which leads via Piramida.
A little further, at the stop sign we go slightly right, and even a little further at the transformer and a bigger chapel we go left. At the next crossroad, where on the stop sign there is a little ambiguously placed trail blaze, we go left and we continue on the asphalt road which passes into the forest (right - tourist farm Roškar and Anina klet). When we leave the forest, follows crossing of panoramic slopes, and when we return on an indistinct ridge, we get to the village Zbigovci.
In Zbigovci at the smaller unmarked crossroad we go slightly left, so that we continue on a path Trstenjakova pot. For some time we then continue straight, and from a little bigger crossroad at the religious symbol and information board of Natura 2000 we go left. Again follows a little bit of a descent, and when from the left joins another road from Gornja Radgona or Črešnjevci we go slightly right. The path ahead gets close to a lookout tower, which is privately owned and which we bypass on the left side (right - Rodmošci and the path Trstenjakova pot). Next follows some easy walking and we get to the settlement Orehovski Vrh, where we continue straight. Next follows some descent, and signs for Pomurje mountain trail quickly point us to the right towards a smaller hamlet, where we bypass the houses on the right side. The path ahead leads us on a cart track which passes into the forest, and after few minutes of ascent, we leave the forest and past the nearby house we reach the macadam road, on which we ascend steeper to the asphalt road. We follow the road to the left (right - Stavešinski Vrh) and we continue walking through the settlement Ptujska Cesta. A little after the inn Ajda we leave the asphalt and we go slightly right on a macadam road which leads us right from the nearby houses.
At the inn, pizzeria and brewery Kostanj we reach a little wider road, and we follow it to the right. When the mentioned road turns a little to the right, we leave it and past the chapel we get into municipality Radenci. We continue among individual houses and vineyards, and blazes from the main path point us to the left on a side road, and before the nearby house we go right. We short time continue on the macadam road, and then we return on the asphalt road, where at the crossroad we continue left (right - Očeslavci). The path ahead leads us through Janžev Vrh, from where beautiful views are opening up.
Next follows few crossroads, where we follow the blazes or signs for Kapelski Vrh, and in a gentle descent, we then reach the village Kobilščak. We still follow the blazes and a little further we get to the village Radenski Vrh, and from where already a nice view opens up towards the church of St. Marija Magdalena or vantage point Kapela.
Further past the sports field Kapela we reach the road Radenci - Sveti Jurij ob Ščavnici, and we follow it to the right. The path ahead leads us on a sidewalk, and a little ahead on the pedestrian crossing we carefully cross it.
On the other side of the road, we lightly ascend, we then cross also the side road, and on the other side, we go right and then immediately left on a steeper narrower asphalt path, on which with increasingly beautiful views we ascend to the church of St. Marija Magdalena on 312 meters high hill.
