Koča na Pesku - Pesek

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Maribor, we take the exit Slovenske Konjice and continue driving towards the mentioned settlement. From Slovenske Konjice, we continue towards Zreče, and we further follow the road in the direction of Rogla. When we get to Rogla, we continue on the main road, which for some time continues without large changes in altitude, then turns to the left and gradually starts descending. We follow the mentioned road to the mountain hut Koča na Pesku, where we park on a parking lot near the mountain hut.
B) First, we drive to Lovrenc na Pohorju (to here from the road Maribor - Dravograd), and then we continue driving towards Rogla and Koča na Pesku. The further macadam road then first brings us to Mašinžaga and then also to the mountain hut Koča na Pesku. We park on a parking lot at the mountain hut Koča na Pesku.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we walk towards the northeastern side of the mountain hut Koča na Pesku, where on the tree we notice signposts and a caption for the peak Pesek. Before the tree with signs we go slightly left and in a few steps we walk into the forest, where a poorly visible path turns left.
A relatively easy-to-follow but poorly beaten path moderately ascends towards the left, and after a few minutes the blazes direct us to the right onto marked pathless terrain, where it is occasionally possible to follow a weaker footpath. We follow this footpath to the nearby peak, which we recognize by the tree with the caption Pesek.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in October 2021.

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips, summit register
