Ivarčko jezero - Uršlja gora (Plešivec) (Železarska pot)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Ivarčko Lake from the village Kotlje past Rimski vrelec or Šrotnek.

Path description:
We park the car on one of the three parking lots below Ivarčko Lake and we go to a roundabout, where the path takes us past the signpost Uršlja gora on the road into the forest.
We continue the path for a few moments below the newly built chairlift all the way to the bridge, which we cross and immediately turn right into the bank. After fifteen minutes of walking we can also decide for Grofovska pot, which branches off to the left – Železarska pot continues straight ahead.
When we come out of the forest we continue the path below the farm Jurček on the road to the partisan monument, where we turn right onto the road below the forest. At the place where the road continues into the forest the direction sign directs us to the left upwards into the forest. Here we can rest for a moment and direct our gaze towards the town Ravne na Koroškem, Strojna and Košenjak in the background.
We continue the path all the way through mixed forest and on a nicely arranged and well-marked path upwards, where we cross forest roads several times.
On the path after a good hour of walking we can rest on a nicely arranged bench and 15 minutes higher refresh ourselves at the spring of Uršljica.
A little before the spring of Uršljica, Železarska and Grofovska pot join again.
The renewed ascent towards the summit brings us to the junction of the Slovenian transverse path, which runs from Poštarski dom. At this junction of paths there is a nicely arranged wayside shrine - cross.
We continue the path on the transverse path partly also on the road to Uršlja gora. Just below the summit the path from Andrejev dom na Slemenu also joins.

On the way: Črni vrh (1335m), Mali vrh (1445m), Dom na Uršlji gori (1680m)
