Prevalje - Sveta Barbara in Zagrad (steep path)

Access to starting point:
From Mežica, border crossing Holmec or Ravne na Koroškem, we drive to Prevalje, where between the stores Hofer and Eurospin, at the inn Gostilna Brančurnik, we turn onto a side road which continues towards the south. At the spot where we leave the main road there are hiking signposts for Uršlja gora, and we park only a little further on a larger macadam parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we return to the main road, then continue on the sidewalk in the direction of Mežica. The path leads us past the bus stop, then we arrive at a junction where an asphalt road branches off to the left towards the cemetery. Before we cross the mentioned road, we go left onto a wide and fenced footpath which starts to ascend the slope. After a few steps, below the chapel of St. Rozalija, the path splits, and we continue right (straight gentle path), so that we arrive right at the chapel of St. Rozalija. After the chapel the footpath becomes narrower and starts to ascend steeply on a steep slope that is mainly dangerous for slipping when wet. The steepness eases after some 10 steps and a slightly overgrown path brings us to the church of St. Barbara in Zagrad.
