A) From highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Žalec, and then we follow the road in the direction of Velenje, where in main roundabout in the middle of the town we continue right in the direction of Slovenj Gradec. In Slovenj Gradec, near the gas station, we continue left in the direction of settlements Podgorje, Sele and Ravne na Koroškem. Further, we drive on a regional road towards Ravne na Koroškem, after that at settlement Vrhe we continue left in the direction of village Sele and church of St. Rok. From the church, we continue on the asphalt road which only a little higher brings us to a crossroad, where the road which leads to Poštarski dom branches off to the left. Local road we then at the first crossroad follow right, in second left (both times in the direction of Poštarski dom). The mentioned road, we follow all the way to the mountain hut Poštarski dom, where we park on a parking lot near the mountain hut.

After a smaller mountain pass, where the road flattens, behind the bus stop we continue right in the direction of the settlement Sele. Further, we drive on a little narrower road which brings us in the mentioned settlement, after the settlement we join the road which leads past the church of St. Rok (we join the road from description A). The mentioned road, we follow right, a little further at the marked crossroad left in the direction of Poštarski dom. When we get to Poštarski dom we park on an appropriate place by the mountain hut.

Path description:
From the mountain hut Poštarski dom pod Plešivcem we continue on the road ahead, but only few steps, because then signpost for Uršlja gora points us right on a cart track. Further, we are ascending on a moderately ascending cart track approximately 20 minutes. Higher, the cart track makes a left turn and starts descending. After a short descent it brings us on a bad forest road, where we continue to the turn-off of the footpath (worse cart track) left upwards. We are soon again on a bad road which we follow right past a small quarry. Only few ten meters ahead marked footpath branches off sharply to the left on Uršlja gora.
We go on the mentioned path which starts ascending steeply and which after 20 minutes of ascent brings us to benches at the memorial plaque. A little further by the cross joins the path from the lake Ivarčko jezero.
We continue left to the next crossing, where we go right upwards. Only few minutes ahead we get to a forest road which runs on Uršlja gora. After a short walk on the road, at the left turn footpath branches off to the right, which leads towards the mountain hut Dom na Uršlji gori. Forest by the path then becoming thinner, so we have a nice view towards the surroundings. The path few steps before hut again brings us on the road which we follow to the mountain hut Dom na Uršlji gori.
From the hut, we continue on a path, which is situated between the church and the mountain hut towards the transmitters. The path bypasses transmitters on the left side and in a gentle ascent it ascends to a cross on the top of the mountain.
