Access to starting point:
A) From Ravne na Koroškem or through the border crossing Holmec we drive to Mežica, where in the beginning of the settlement, we turn left towards Tuš store, sports park and a music house. After the Tuš store and before retirement home we turn left in the direction of the settlement Leše. Behind the crossroad we cross a river Meža, after the bridge we already notice first red signposts, which point us to the right. Only a little further, we get to the next crossroad, where signs for Uršlja gora pointing to the left, and we turn right, where we park by the sports field and music house.
B) From Črna na Koroškem we drive to Mežica, where in the center of the settlement, we turn right towards sports park, at the next crossroad we go left. For some time we still drive through the settlement, after that behind the retirement home we turn right in the direction of Leše. Behind the crossroad we cross a river Meža, after the bridge we already notice first red signposts, which point us to the right. Only a little further, we get to the next crossroad, where signs for Uršlja gora pointing to the left, and we turn right, where we park by the sports field and music house.
Path description:
From the starting point, we return to a marked crossroad, and then we continue on an ascending road in the direction of Naravske ledine, Uršlja gora and KPP (path Koroška planinska pot). At joinery Peršak we continue straight on a macadam road which takes us into the forest and it changes into a mountain path which continues by a torrent. A little further on the right we notice a wooden bridge, and we continue straight and for some time we still stay on the right bank of the torrent. Few minutes ahead we cross a torrent, after that on some successive crossings we carefully follow the blazes. Higher by the crossroad we reach an asphalt road, and we continue on the left road, by which continue blazes KPP. Few minutes we walk on the road, from which for some time a nice view opens up towards Peca, and then we continue right into the forest, where we walk on a cart track. Cart track higher brings us out of the forest and then through the yard of the nearby homestead we reach the next asphalt road which we only cross. Next follows an ascent through a panoramic meadow, and then the path turns slightly left in the forest. Through the forest, we walk only for a short time because we quickly reach the macadam road which we follow to the left (right - Andrejev vrh, Sveti Lenart, Koča na Naravskih ledinah, Uršlja gora...), and there we lightly descend to the near chapel.
At the chapel, we cross the road which runs into Mežica and we continue walking on a footpath which leads through a meadow, through which it is lightly ascending. When the meadow ends, the path leads in the forest, through which is at first gently, and higher steeply ascending. This path, by which from the chapel further there aren't any Knafelc blazes, we then follow all the way to the inscription box on the top of Volinjak.
