Path description:
From the spot, where we've parked, we at first walk to the main crossroad in Vitanje, and from there we continue on the main road towards Slovenske Konjice. On the main road we walk few 100 meters and then signpost points us to the right downwards to the nearby small bridge. After the small bridge, we ascend on the road past the kindergarten to street Cvetlična ulica. When we ascend there to a crossroad with the street Štajnhof, we continue left, and on the road we ascend to the last house which is located next to the sharp left turn. At the end of the turn, a macadam road branches off to the right, and we walk there only 2 meters and then we continue left in the forest (to here possible also with a car).
We continue on a marked path which starts steeply ascending through the forest. Higher, the path becomes even steeper, and then it brings us to a viewpoint with a bench, where it flattens. Further, the path leads us past the prefab cottage, and higher when the forest ends also past the farm Vodovnik. Here blazes for some time end, and we continue through the yard of the mentioned farm and then on the forest road back in the forest. We continue on the road about a minute, and then a narrower footpath branches off to the right, on which we continue the ascent. Further, we are again a little steeper ascending through the forest, and the steepness decreases a little higher when we reach the next forest road which is usually quite muddy. We continue on the road which at the next crossroad we follow left and then after few minutes right. Now we walk on the forest road which continues parallel with a wide cart track. When the forest gets thinner, blazes vanishes again, and we get to a very wide and well maintained road which we only cross. We continue on a zig-zag path which leads us through the low forest and fern. Higher, the path returns into the forest and in front of us there is the last steepness. For some time we are steeply ascending, and then before we reach the ridge, where a short footpath branches off towards the nearby viewpoint. When we reach the ridge, the path flattens, and from there a footpath branches off towards shrine Marijina roka. From the crossing follows 5 more minutes of walking and we get to the top of Stenica.
