Gradišče na Kozjaku (Hajdišev mlin) - Sveti Duh na Ostrem Vrhu

Access to starting point:
From the road Maribor - Dravograd, before the bridge over the stream Črmenica (the stream is located a little before the settlement Ožbalt, from the direction of Dravograd, somewhat behind the settlement) we turn right (from the direction of Dravograd after the bridge left) in the direction of settlements Gradišče and Kapla and Odomovo jezero. We continue driving through the valley of the stream Črmenica to a crossroad, where the road branches off sharply to the right towards Sveti Duh na Ostrem Vrhu. We park at a suitable place somewhere nearby.

Route description:
From the starting point, we head onto the road towards Sveti Duh and begin ascending diagonally along it. After a few minutes of ascent, we leave the road and continue slightly left on a marked cart track, which first ascends through the forest, then across a hayfield we reach the homestead Tišler, behind which we go left again onto a cart track. Further on, we walk along the cart track, which ascends diagonally to the right, along it arriving at the homestead Klavž, where we bypass the buildings on the left side.
Here too, we go left onto a cart track, which becomes more overgrown, and higher up there are also several fallen trees across the path. Higher up follow a few successive junctions, where we follow the blazes, then at the edge of the hayfield we reach Ropičeva koča, where we go right.
We continue the ascent on a poorer road, which leads through the forest; when we leave the forest, we go right twice. When we reach the asphalt road, we continue straight or slightly left, along it walking to the settlement Sveti Duh na Ostrem Vrhu, where at the start of the settlement we continue right and ascend the stairs to the church of the Holy Spirit.
