Dom na Boču - Boč (Senčna pot)

Access to starting point:
A) From the direction of Ljubljana we leave the highway at Slovenske Konjice and through Žič, Loč and Zbelovo we drive to Poljčane. At the intersection we continue right in the direction of Zgornje Poljčane, where at the marked intersection we turn left upwards and drive to the parking lot at the mountain hut Dom na Boču.
b) From the direction of Maribor we leave the highway at Slovenska Bistrica, where the traffic signs direct us to Poljčane. Through the center of the settlement Poljčane we continue in the direction of Zgornje Poljčane, where at the marked intersection we turn left upwards and drive to the parking lot at the mountain hut Dom na Boču.

Path description:
From the mountain hut we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of the church of St. Miklavž and the site of greater pasque flower and before the church we continue left upwards, right downwards to the site of greater pasque flower. At the former smaller abandoned quarry, where there is a signpost with the caption Vrh Boča-Senčna pot 45 min., we continue on a narrower mountain path, which we follow higher up. The path alternates between narrower and wider sections. The traceability of the path is of course excellent due to good markings and trodden condition because of the high frequency of visitors to this path. Higher up it passes into more rocky terrain and in the last few hundred meters into a typical ridge approach to the summit. We soon reach the summit and after climbing the lookout tower we are rewarded with an excellent view near and far. Photos refer to the condition in January 2023.
