Slovenj Gradec - Koča pod Kremžarjevim vrhom

Access to starting point:
We drive to Slovenj Gradec and park near the roundabout by the Hofer store. Most parking lots in the center of the town are payable during the week, and one can mostly park only for two hours, therefore on the mentioned parking lots it is best to park on weekends, and during the week choose another parking lot. A larger free parking lot is by the town's cemetery, which extends the path by about 10 minutes. The cemetery is situated on the periphery of the town in the direction towards Velenje.

Path description:
From the spot where we have parked, we walk to the roundabout by the Hofer store, and then we head onto the road in the direction of the ski slope Kope and settlement Legen. At first we walk on the sidewalk, we leave the road towards Kope at the crossroads, where the road towards Kope turns right, and we continue straight in the direction of the marked path to Kremžarjev vrh and the road towards Gradišče. Further on, we still walk on the sidewalk, a little after the road sign which marks the end of Slovenj Gradec, the mountain signposts direct us left onto the path that ascends across the meadow. At a few houses, we cross the asphalt road, a little higher we join it and follow it to the right.
For a short time, we walk on the asphalt road, then the blazes direct us slightly left onto the footpath that ascends through the forest. Higher, we step out of the forest, cross the macadam road, and ascend across the scenic grassy slope. On the upper edge of the meadow, we cross yet another worse road, then temporarily continue the ascent through the forest again. We quickly leave the forest and arrive at the second hay meadow, along the edge of which we continue to the smaller hamlet, where we step onto the road. Here, along the road that we follow for a few meters, we notice a cross and then head left onto the wide cart track, which we leave after a few meters. The signs direct us right upward onto the path that leads us through the forest to the next hamlet. Here we again step onto the road, which we follow to the left. After a few minutes of walking along the road, we reach a crossroads, where we continue straight along the lower road, which brings us to the next hamlet. Just a few meters before the house, the marked path turns left and continues along the cart track. We then follow this path to the next hamlet, after which we walk a few meters along the road. The blazes here again direct us onto the footpath, which a little higher crosses the road once more. After that, the path ascends a little more steeply for a short time and brings us to a junction, where the path from Dravograd joins. Here we continue right and after a short ascent across the partly sparsely vegetated slope we arrive at the Koča pod Kremžarjevim vrhom.
