Access to starting point:
From the south Maribor arterial road at the traffic light crossroad we turn towards the settlement Hoče, and on the road which is completely asphalted, after 18 km we get to Areh. The entire path is equipped with appropriate signposts.
Path description:
From the parking lot on the west side we go on a macadam road, there through the forest approximately 0.6 km, until we come on the edge of the forest. Here we have available two options: we can go a little ahead and then follow the signs left upwards by the ski track over the highest point of Žigartov vrh or we decide for the left well-beaten and wide path on southeastern slopes of Žigartov vrh, this path is for 15 minutes shorter as the before mentioned variant. We decide for the latter and we turn left on a comfortable path, which at first runs on flat,passes into the forest, then rises a little, until from the right side joins the path from Žigartov vrh ("30 min). The path descends a little, on a smaller overgrown clearing through trees for a moment a view opens up, which is again obscured by the trees. We cross a macadam road, on the plain we on the left side we bypass a larger clearing and then we start descending from Peršetov vrh. We get to NOB monument ("40 min), where the path again flattens, few 30 meters from the monument there is a crossroad of mountain paths, the left path leads towards Tri kralji and our path turns right, as the sign "Pesek" on the tree shows. Through a young forest we walk about 200 meters and we come to a crossroad of a macadam and forest road. We cross a macadam road and we continue straight on the forest road to its end at a smaller clearing. The path now for a short time slightly ascends through the forest, on the top we go slightly to the left and then right downwards, we cross overgrown forest clearing, follows the ascent again. We are at Bajgotov vrh, the path bypasses its highest point on the north side and in nice weather we can hear roaring from the waterfall Šumik. The path starts descending steeply towards source of Lobnica, we cross a macadam road, few more meters through the forest (or just on the road around) and we get to the spot, named Bajgot, which is also known crossroad of the mountain paths ("45 min, from Areh 2 hours). We are at the lowest point of our tour, at this spot there is the confluence of the rivers Lobnica, Kraljščica and Črnava. There is available a larger macadam parking lot, in the forest are settled benches and table for mountaineers. We are just by the edge of protected area and if we have time, we can view waterfall Veliki Šumik, to which there is approximately 20 minutes of descent, we return on the same path. From the parking lot we go in the direction of west on the road which immediately at the first right turn crosses Lobnica, and already after a minute we leave the road and we go left upwards into the forest, as shows the signpost for Klopni vrh. The path quickly flattens, we cross the forest road for Osankarica (here there is also turn-off of the mountain path for Pesek and Osankarica), also about 50 meters upwards through the forest and we get to another forest road, on which we turn left. We go there past a larger clearing, where there is a group of houses, then we turn from the road left downwards - signpost Klopni vrh (" 20 min), (in bad weather we can just continue on the mentioned road which is slowly ascending). The path leads through the forest, and after a time above us we notice a forest road, the path all the time follows it, until in the last part it joins it. Below Sekretarjev vrh the road ends (" 45 min), and here we turn right into the forest on a gentle steepness downwards. We come to a crossing (" 15 min), the left path leads past the lake Tiho jezero ("Falski tajht") and through Trije žeblji on Osankarica, and our path turns right. The path is still descending, we cross two more smaller streams and we get to a good cart track, we leave the forest and on a plain we get to NOB monument on our left side. Further our path leads straight and slightly downwards and passes on the forest road, and from the right side a view starts opening up. On the left side, we get to the turn-off of the path towards Pesek, at the crossroad of forest roads we go straight and we get to the destination ("15 min).
