Planina pri Sevnici - Petrova skala na Bohorju

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Sevnica (to here from Radeče, Mokronog or Krško), and then we head on the road in the direction of Planina pri Sevnici. When we arrive at the Petrol gas station, which is located right next to Planina pri Sevnici, we turn right in the direction of the company Montpreis and immediately after the crossroads we park on a larger asphalt parking lot by the cemetery.
B) We drive to Šentjur (to here from Celje, Štajerska highway exit Dramlje or Šmarje pri Jelšah), and then we follow the signs for Kozje and Planina pri Sevnici. At the end of Šentjur we go right in the direction of Planina pri Sevnici (slightly left Kozje and Podsreda). Further on, we are mostly ascending, when the road flattens and on the right side we notice the Petrol gas station, which is located right next to Planina pri Sevnici, then we go left in the direction of the company Montpreis and immediately after the crossroads we park on the parking lot by the cemetery.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we return to the main road and from the nearby crossroads we head towards Sevnica. For approximately 20 minutes we descend along the edge of the main road, from which beautiful views open up on the surrounding hills, then we arrive at the settlement Stara Žaga, where the blazes direct us left onto a side road. The path ahead ascends past a few houses and we arrive at a marked junction, where the marked path splits.
We continue on the road in the direction of Koča na Bohorju (right Skalica), which at the end of the settlement becomes macadam and brings us into the gorge of Beli potok. Higher up, the road makes two hairpins, from the junction after the second hairpin we go left. For some time we still ascend on the road, then, when the road turns right, we continue left along the stream, where on a short steep section a rope helps us (greater danger of slipping is mainly in the wet and if it is frozen). A little further another rope helps us, then we ascend diagonally to the saddle north of Kamnega vrh (833 m), where we return to the road and where there is a marked junction.
Here a path sharply branches off to the left towards Šentvid pri Planini, left along the road a path leads to the eastern part of Bohor, but we continue straight on the marked road in the direction of Koča na Bohorju. We continue on the macadam road, along it until the first right bend, where we leave the road and continue slightly left onto a footpath (it is possible to continue along the road, along the road we can also reach Lovski dom Bohor and the saddle between Veliki and Mali Javornik) and then at a few smaller junctions we follow the blazes. Higher up we cross a cart track, then we return to the macadam road. When a little further we reach the pass between Koprivnik on the left and Veliki Javornik on the right, we arrive at a marked junction.
We continue straight in the direction of Koča na Bohorju (left Koprivnik, right Veliki Javornik) and continue further on the road, which starts descending, after a few minutes a path leading over the summit of Koprivnik joins us from the left. Here too we continue straight and along the road to the next marked junction.
Here we leave the road and head right in the direction of Petrova skala (left Podsreda, Senovo - via Reštanj), Plištanj and Rudnica, straight Koča na Bohorju - 1 minute and Senovo), where we walk on a trail that turns onto the slope. The path ahead leads us past the branch to the natural window, then after a few steps we arrive at Petrova skala, from which a beautiful view opens up.
