Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the main road and we continue right to the nearby roundabout, from which we go on the road, by which there are signs for Jelovec pri Makolah and Sveti Urban.
We continue on a little narrower road which leads us across the stream Jelovški potok. Makole a little ahead ends, and from the crossroad with dead-end street we continue left, where first blazes show up. We continue on the asphalt road which a little ahead ascends through the forest and then leads past few houses. Further from the road a nice view opens up, and at few crossroads we follow the signs and blazes. Higher, the road leads us past the chapel of St. Urban, and at few crossroads we still follow the blazes. Eventually we go from the asphalt road left on a macadam road which for some time descends a little, and from there we go right on a cart track which ascends by the edge of the forest. The path ahead few minutes leads through the forest, and when we leave the forest we go right, so that we bypass the nearby homestead on the right side, and when we reach the asphalt road we go left. Again follows some descent, and at the farm Domišak the road returns into the forest and starts ascending. In the forest, we go from the road right on a cart track, on which we are diagonally ascending. When we leave the cart track, from which for some time a nice view opens up on Boč, we step on the road which we follow to the right (left - Plešivec). On the road, we don't walk long, because blazes point us slightly to the left, on a cart track which ascends diagonally towards the right, and higher at the crossings we follow it in the direction of the blazes. In the vicinity of the peak Kisovec the path starts descending and brings us on a worse road, on which we lightly descend to Formila.
When we reach Formila we continue left (sharply right - Studenice and Boč on the road) and we short time still continue by the edge of the forest, and when the road goes into the forest it brings us to a marked crossroad.
At the crossroad from the left joins the path from Plešivec, and we continue right in the direction of Boč. Also at the next crossroad, where joins another path from Plešivec or Donačka gora we continue right, and we go right also at the next crossroad. From the last crossroad we walk on the road only a short time, and then we go left on a marked path, which on a cart track ascends to the spot, where used to be a forestry cottage, and now there is a new cottage (condition May 2022).
Here we again step on the road which we follow to the left (across the road leads an unmarked path on Boč, or we can join also the road which leads towards Boč). Further, we walk on the road which crosses slopes of Boč towards the left, and there we are at first still gently ascending, and later we also descend a little.
Few 10 strides before we reach the asphalt road, we go from the road right on a marked path Senčna pot which leads towards Boč (if we continue on the road or parallel mountain path we would in 5 minutes get to Dom na Boču).
The path ahead leads us on a cart track, or on some parts parallel with it, and higher we leave the cart track and we continue the ascent on increasingly steep mountain path. For some time we are ascending on a well-beaten marked path, and higher the marked path turns right and avoids the footpath which is used by majority of mountaineers and we diagonally ascend towards the right, where after few minutes we reach the southeastern ridge of Boč, where from the right joins a worse unmarked footpath which leads on the mentioned ridge (the beginning of the mentioned path is at the before mentioned forestry cottage).
Here the marked path turns left, and we continue on a forested ridge. A little further from the left joins also the already mentioned better beaten path, and we continue straight and we quickly get to a lookout tower on Boč.
