Further on, the road starts ascending towards the mentioned settlement, which is located at approximately 950 m a.s.l. Next follows a gradual descent to the settlement Sele - Borovnica / Zell - Freibach and to the crossroads, where the road past Borovnica dammed lake joins (description A2). Here we continue right towards the settlement Sele - Šajda / Zell - Schaida and Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel. We follow the road towards Železna Kapla only to the alpine pass Šajda / Schaidasattel, where we park on the arranged asphalt parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the nearby pass, from there we continue right in the direction of the peak Ojstrc / Hochobir (Ojstrc is the highest peak of Obir). The path at the very beginning leads past a pleasant rest area, then along the macadam road, from which a nice view opens up on the northern walls of Košuta, Setiče / Freiberg and more. Along the macadam road, which branches off from the main one at the pass Šajda, we walk to the signposts, which direct us right onto the path that starts ascending through the forest. The path, which further crosses the macadam road 8 times, ascends mostly through the forest, but in between there are enough clearings, grassy slopes and sparse forest, from where a nice view opens up mainly towards the south and west. When we finally leave the road, we ascend wooden steps, then from the forest we arrive at a larger meadow, where on the right we notice Kacmun's cross.
At Kacmun's cross, the path turns first left and leads us past the entrance to the adit. After the adit, straight ahead continues the steep path to Kravji vrh / Kuhberg (across the meadow pathless), but we continue on the marked path, which turns right into the forest. The mostly spruce forest after a few minutes starts to thin out, then the path over the pasture fence brings us to panoramic and increasingly grassy slopes. The path continues along an indistinct grassy valley towards Obirsko sedlo / Obirsattel. A few steps before reaching the saddle, the marked path turns right, but we continue to the ridge, from where a nice view opens up towards the north, where we can clearly see Borovnica dammed lake, part of the Drava valley, Mali Obir, Ojstrc...
If we are attentive at the saddle, we can notice an old faded inscription "Kuhberg", which directs us left. We find the continuation of the path in a belt of dwarf pines a few meters below the ridge, then we follow the unmarked but cleared path through the dwarf pines towards Kravji vrh. The path to Kravji vrh continues on and along the panoramic ridge and first takes us to the forepeak of Kravji vrh, which is actually higher than the one where the cross is located. This is followed by a moderate descent and then a shorter ascent to the cross and summit log box on Kravji vrh.
