Access to starting point:
A) From Dravograd we drive towards Maribor, but only to the village Vas, where we continue left towards Remšnik. Next follows an ascent to the mentioned settlement, where a little before the parish church of St. Jurij we continue sharply left. Further, we drive past homesteads Kajzar and Helbel, at the latter we continue on the right road, and then we go past homesteads Prelank, where we go left, and Korenk, which we bypass on the left side. Next follows some more crossings, where at the crossroads we continue straight. When we get to the national border, we park in an appropriate place by the road. Border crossing Remšnik is located a few 100 meters ahead.
B) From Maribor, we drive towards Dravograd, but only to the settlement Brezno, where we turn right in the direction of the settlement Brezni Vrh and Remšnik. Higher, we leave the road towards Remšnik and continue straight towards Brezni Vrh. A few meters ahead we continue slightly right, and then we drive past homesteads Hager, Podržavnik, Kompar, Breznik, where we go left towards Austria, and then follows some more crossings and we arrive at the border crossing with Austria. Here we go left and drive approximately 500 m to the next crossroad, where we park in an appropriate place.

Path description:
From the starting point, we head onto the footpath that branches off from the road at the sign for the state border. The path leads us westwards and ascends through the forest and along the state border. Further on, some views open up on the Slovenian side; higher up, when the path takes us out of the forest, also on the Austrian side. This is followed by a shorter, steeper ascent along the upper part of the panoramic meadow, and we soon arrive at the church of St. Pankracij.
