Boč from or above Studenice. Combination of forest roads and mountain paths. Formila, partisan hospital and Hunters' Lodge LD Rogaška Slatina the central three points of the path. Rainy, foggy/above 420 meters and very dense around Formila, windy. Above Formila still a surprise in the form of a mire -,,babji pšen,, we say in our parts of Slovenia. It was an easy trail. Yeah the mountain path that I used today between Hrastovec junction and Formila meadow is interesting. I would personally rank it somewhere among mežikanjemy ,,TOP 7,, in the area between Konjiška gora and Sotla source. Weather of course not the most pleasant but also this needs to be experienced so the day doesn't go ,,to waste,,...

To the border areas of Boč a short hiking activity on Monday,08.12.2014. Somewhat more concretely connected the left and right bank of Dravinja between Poljčane and Studenice. By road from Spodnje Poljčane to Studenice. After a really long time, mežikanjedangerous because no sidewalk and also evening time. Not recommended!?. Continuing to Sv. Lucija and Studeniški grad. Sv. Lucija through turbulent history a point on the left bank of Dravinja...In Studenice preparations for Christmas Eve have already started. Traditional live nativity scenes have carried the name of Studenice wider into Slovenia and beyond. Definitely excellent, natural setting and diligent locals/organizers and performers...
Pleasant two hours, short training,...some pre-Christmas atmosphere down in the valley along Dravinja and a bit of Boč higher up. Yesterday afternoon after 15 days without sun, it ,,showed,, for an hour or two but fogs made a ,,cap,, again in the evening...

On the ,,path,, of all paths leading to Boč...,,Over Baba,, today in the evening hours ascent. The last third of this path, as I predicted before departure partially muddy and it was so. In this area the world is not so distinctly karstic, more stable rock prevails. From the hut on Boč continuation towards Formila and descent via brunarica Golnik, Pritensko, Podboč and Spodnje Poljčane back home to Poljčane for one mežikanjenice loop.
Cold, clear, no wind and pleasant!!!Today solo! Boč quite restless, wild boars were calling out, I don't remember when so!? Overall impression-pleasant, three evening hours usefully used in this already slightly December pre-Christmas time...

nasmehSunday noon/afternoon. No time in the morning. Boč was today due to short days the best choice. Where? To the central part of Boč and slightly southeast. Gril chapel in Cerovec on Boč/Rogaška part of Boč and Plešivec summit. Strong points. Gril chapel some spiritual point and Plešivec right after Boč in importance summit and also height. Start in Zgornje Poljčane. Somewhere in optimal/short line to Gril chapel but still solid 10 km. Hiking. Sunny and no wind. Rang the bell seven times for luck, mainly for safe ,,bočko,, paths... and it was Sunday of the fourth advent. Entry in the book and return...higher and smaller loop to 822m high Plešivec. Steep shapes but always was and will be connecting link between higher Boč and also Donačka gora to the east. Ascent on forest road, descent on mountain path...
mežikanjeContinuation classic - Gavez, Formila meadow, mountaineers' hut PD Poljčane on Boč, pasque flower site of course mandatory somewhere...and back to Poljčane. Frost pressed a bit at the end, got dark quickly after 16:30 but it was enough and I was home. 25 km and some meters, elevation gain a bit less than thousand meters of course...still enough, today numbers didn't play a role...but mainly beautiful paths with a touch...yes, already winter time officially but nature's appearance still persistently autumnal...
nasmehYes that's also Boč, something more than just mountain hut, pasque flower site, tower on top...

Today in the morning after zeeeeloooo long time I went to Boč; this time with brother mežikanje We started from parking lot above Zg. Poljčane, ascended over Baba to the mountain hut and then via "shady path" to the top. The hut was today closed mrk pogled (forgot it's Monday...), so probably no hikers there. But "lonely cats"nasmeh welcomed us.
Path nice without mud, weather cloudy and on top also quite windy. We met 3 or 4 hikers. Despite sour weather pleasant little tournasmeh

Frankly speaking, today I mežikanjewasn't up for Boč. But colleague Vinko had the wish and finally time. Only the evening variant comes into consideration, of course. The daylight part of the day is simply too short these days. Gril chapel yesterday and Plešivec of course, Ravnocerje perhaps still a bit too far... Yeah, no doubt - Kostrivnica part of Boč definitely the right choice. Formila, Sv. Marjeta, Sv. Miklavž, pasque flower site and Galke. Five points, each with its note and meaning somewhere on the ,,summit plateau,, of the Kostrivnica part of Boč. Interesting world and on the summit ridge of Galke, where we walked back, a possible simultaneous view of Poljčane and Kostrivnica down in the valley, and that already balanced the path today. Lots, perhaps too much artificial light down along Dravinja, Sotla... but end of December and festive time... I lacked some freshness, while Vinko was relatively rested, in recent weeks not overly active...
Evening, relatively short, easy... such routes I probably won't hike again... but it was really pleasant. Met no one. Conditions optimal...

Boč and today relatively low. From home to Studenice/evening. Educational path directly above Dravinja river was still untouched. Broke trail first and pulled ,,spur,, to Studenice. Because exposed to winds, also some snowdrifts.. From Studenice along spring higher but today only to junction for hunters' hut LD Poljčane, 20-30 cm snow, weak track still from yesterday. There was some cloudiness, lingering fogs and light snow falling, temperature around -8 C. Pleasant and really nice it would be higher but enough for Pritensko and via Podboč back home to Poljčane. Plowed only to Pritensko, obviously they will use another connection for objects on top of Boč this winter too of course... Some km, elevation little, just enough for something in already quite from yesterday nasmehwinter Boč...

Short walk to Studenice and back. Some little Boč was there anyway. Perhaps/probably the northernmost point under Boč is Studenice. Caught in snow and ice currently. Narrower center around monastic complex will, due to pronounced sheltered position, be without sun there until Candlemas...Late afternoon, night caught me...It was short but pleasant...

First in this year was to Boč, beautiful as always but in winter conditions I haven't gone on it yet. Up the western path (unmarked) to the top. Wind was quite strong hence views that reached into distances.

I'm curious how you ,,came,, to the name for the trail - western trail...The ,,circular trail,, as you called it on the Pešpoti portal is more ,,so-so,,. Personally I think, trail uphill of course, yesterday wasn't the right day for it. It heavily intrudes into the wildlife habitat on Boč and that's why it's unmarked too. Years ago it was marked, now it's not. Yesterday was in winter 2014/15 the most inappropriate day for visiting this trail and even less for publicly announcing the visit...Nature somewhere ,,broke,, in the snow structure from northern to southern and that's a shock for animals too, especially regarding movement...If you were mežikanjetrue lover of animals, nature, mountaineering, hiking...yesterday on this trail you wouldn't ,,push,, uphill but would stick to somewhat more right marked and on these pages published. Already Strikan, if I'm not mistaken he wrote to you two years ago November, that these trails we don't advertise too much and put them up, you still continue, even on blog and now peak in winter conditions...If already you hike!?! ,,keep it to yourself and NO!! announce publicly,,.
Winter conditions somewhere ended on Boč in night from New Year's Eve to New Year's Day or in morning of New Year's Day. Yesterday was only winter day about winter conditions only some traces left! Winter conditions were in time of snowfall on Sunday and maybe still in days when really freezing…This trail in time of snowfall, wind,...demanding, after snowfall simple, because ridge anyway wind blows it off, which is already visible on photos…Best

Can't stop laughing velik nasmeh....somewhere almost half meter snow and no winter conditions....eh come on at these years you could already be serious and responsible....THIS is obvious and intentional misleading of hribi net portal users. Trail slippery and somewhere in shade icy. Big difference to describe and publicly post some hiked trail just as experience and not detailed trail description with pictures.

I've published much more precise trail descriptions with pictures on this portal among official trails or described trips than you @pohodnik 38. Number is somewhere over 130. Also in conditions I try to be clear, short and especially accurate...Stop once with this ,,formal addressing,, because you look pointless. Whole Slovenia is practically under snow, everyone can make picture of conditions somewhere and now really don't walk around in sandals and crocs, in low salomons with good profile on Boč no problem. If more even better...Here on this trail no winter conditions, if hiking in thaw and also with meter high snow that others trampled Sunday and Monday...I correctly wrote winter conditions in traces...
You write here some fairy tales about western trail and circular trail. Neither one nor the other holds. You don't even know mountains that you photo in distance...You mislead people, because you present long officially abandoned hiking trails and describe in some mega stories on forum and blog...
On forum and blog you have bunch of inaccuracies...I myself corrected you two, three times...Two more, latest - Road Slovenske Konjice - Frankolovo and continuation to Celje is no local road but has higher mežikanjecategorization... Trail to Stolpnik from Frankolovo doesn't lead through any mežikanjeČešnjice but Črešnjice. Already to locals who live up high in hills under Konjiška gora on sparsely measured and hilly/steep land it's correct to properly write place name, if you already here on forum ,,mess around,, constantly with inaccuracies and errors...
Nice greeting, strong and safe be your step!

Bruny: you're exaggerating a bit, Boč isn't only yours. Animals won't die of fright if he went his own way up. nasmeh Regarding incorrect claims you could calmly point out to the pohodnik about them......... not that you boast. True you're local and know Boč better than many others, but that doesn't give you right to own it. nasmeh

Thursday 08.01.2015 evening hours hiking in border/edge part of Landscape Park Boč & Plešivec from Poljčane to Makole along Dravinja river. Short ascent above settlement Makole to chapel St. Lenart, excellent viewpoint. Continuation extension to/over left bank Dravinja - Štatenberg castle and ponds directly below it. Now all this is also called Landscape Park Štatenberg and of course return home...
Trails partially snowy and partially icy. No wind around -4C. Due to sheltered positions thaws in these parts even less...Orientation despite evening hour easy. Kilometers quite some, ascents practically negligible due to route along river. Neighbor and friend Vinko was along for company. Nice trail and pleasant.
Trail route:Along Dravinja river to Makole and Štatenberg castle.Lp
