Path description:
We start the path next to Cesta na Primož, along which we easily ascend towards the northeast. After a few minutes we arrive at a crossroads, where the mountain sign for Bricnik directs us left, but we quickly arrive at the beginning of the settlement Sv. Primož nad Muto. At the next crossroads the markings direct us left, then we ascend transversely across the panoramic grassy slope. When a little higher the road turns right, it loses the asphalt surface and temporarily enters the forest, where it makes a right hairpin turn. Soon we return from the forest, where the path leads past the homestead Sušek, somewhat above the homestead from the crossroads we continue straight or slightly right. Along the macadam road we also bypass the turn-off to the excursion farm Breznik, at the next crossroads, at the sign for the farm Janež, we leave the road and continue along the marked path, which temporarily steeply ascends through the forest, but when it flattens, it joins the macadam road. We continue along the panoramic road, from which a nice view opens towards Pohorje, Uršlja gora, Peca, and in the distance Kamniško Savinjske Alpe are also visible. The buildings on the farm Pentat we bypass on the left side, then we reach an asphalt road, which we just cross and continue towards Bricnik (the signpost for Zavetišče Onuk - Glavar shows right, but it is also better for this destination to continue towards Bricnik). An ascent through the forest follows, when we reach the homestead Žaucer we bypass it on the right side. A few-minute transverse ascent towards the right and left hairpin turn follow, after which we again reach the asphalt road and the marked junction.
From the junction we continue left (straight upwards Bricnik, right Zavetišče Glavar) and after a few minutes of walking along the asphalt road we arrive at the church of sv. Primož and Felicijan, from which a nice view opens.
