Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Dravlje, and then we follow the signs for Šentjur and forward Rogaška Slatina. When we get closer to Rogaška Slatina we don't drive towards the settlement, but we continue in the direction of Rogatec. A little further we get to the settlement Cerovec pod Bočem, where we park after the crossroad, where a road branches off to the left towards Sveti Florijan.
B) From highway Maribor - Ljubljana we go to the exit Slovenska Bistrica south, and then we follow the signs for Rogaška Slatina. When we get closer to Rogaška Slatina we don't drive towards the settlement, but we continue in the direction of Rogatec. A little further we get to the settlement Cerovec pod Bočem, where we park after the crossroad, where a road branches off to the left towards Sveti Florijan.
Path description:
From the parking lot we on the pedestrian crossing carefully cross the main road, and then we go on the road towards Sveti Florijan, and soon by the path, we notice red mountain signposts for the chapel Grilova kapela and Boč. We at first walk on a sidewalk, and after few minutes, the path turns towards the east and only a little further splits. Before the chapel we continue on the left road, by which the blazes continue. We continue between some houses of settlement Cerovec pod Bočem, where we follow the blazes, and higher the asphalt path brings us into gorge of the stream Tržiški potok. We for some time continue through the mentioned gorge, and then the road turns sharply left and gradually goes away from the stream.
A little higher, signs for the chapel Grilova kapela and Boč point us to the left on a side road (straight - ranch Stojnšek), on which we are still ascending.
Higher, we go once again left and then past well Grilov vodnjak we come out of the forest, where on the left, by the edge of the forest we notice the chapel Grilova kapela.
Here we go right in the direction of Boč and Ložna and we return into the forest. Further, we are ascending on slopes of Grilov vrh (612 meters), and higher we reach a larger clearing on the northern side of the mentioned summit.
Here from the southern part of the clearing a view opens up, which reaches all the way to Kamnik Savinja Alps, and we go right, where we on the right side bypass an older wooden cottage. Follows only a shorter ascent on a cart track and we reach the forest road, where the marked path splits.
We continue straight in the direction of Boč (right - Rudijev dom and Ložno), where we steeply ascend on a marked path. The path ahead at first leads through a lane of bushes, from where a view opens up a little and then the path passes into the forest through which it is still quite steeply ascending. Higher, the path and the slope flatten out, and we follow the marked path to a marked crossing, from which we continue straight to the nearby road (right - Donačka gora).
When we reach the road, we go left, and we go left also at the nearby crossroad (right - Makole). Next follows some descent on a macadam road, and when we leave the forest, past a religious symbol we get to a crossroad, at which we go straight (to the left leads the road into a valley in the direction of Rogaška Slatina) and on the left side we bypass homestead Gavez, and on the right the nearby hunting lodge Rogaška Slatina.
Behind the lodge we descend to another road and we follow it to the right. When the road starts ascending, the marked path branches off to the right, which leads towards Formila and Makole, and we continue on the asphalt road which starts ascending. After a short ascent the road splits, and we continue on a slightly left road which starts descending (slightly right road leads to a private house). Next follows a descent on the macadam road which a little lower brings us to a crossroad, where we go right downwards in the direction of Boč. Further we are still descending, and at the next crossroad, where we join the path from Makole we go left. And only a little ahead we go right. From the last crossroad we walk on the road only a short time, and then we go left on a marked path, which on a cart track ascends to the spot, where used to be a forestry cottage, and now there is a new cottage (condition May 2022).
Here we again step on the road which we follow to the left (across the road leads an unmarked path on Boč, or we can join also the road which leads towards Boč). Further, we walk on the road which crosses slopes of Boč towards the left, and there we are at first still gently ascending, and later we also descend a little.
Few 10 strides before we reach the asphalt road, we go from the road right on a marked path Senčna pot which leads towards Boč (if we continue on the road or parallel mountain path we would in 5 minutes get to Dom na Boču).
The path ahead leads us on a cart track, or on some parts parallel with it, and higher we leave the cart track and we continue the ascent on increasingly steep mountain path. For some time we are ascending on a well-beaten marked path, and higher the marked path turns right and avoids the footpath which is used by majority of mountaineers and we diagonally ascend towards the right, where after few minutes we reach the southeastern ridge of Boč, where from the right joins a worse unmarked footpath which leads on the mentioned ridge (the beginning of the mentioned path is at the before mentioned forestry cottage).
Here the marked path turns left, and we continue on a forested ridge. A little further from the left joins also the already mentioned better beaten path, and we continue straight and we quickly get to a lookout tower on Boč.
The starting point - Gril's chapel 0:45, Gril's chapel - Boč 2:30.
