Šober (Dobajev mlin) - Možičev vrh (zaprta pot!)

Access to starting point:
From the Maribor - Dravograd road, in the village of Bresternica (Brestrnica on maps) we will notice signs for the village Gaj, which direct us right (from the Dravograd direction left). After a few meters, at a poorly marked intersection we continue left and follow the road leading through the settlement to a chapel, at which we continue left. The mostly ascending road takes us higher to an intersection, where we notice mountaineering direction signs for Tojzlov vrh. We continue left here and follow the road that continues to ascend gradually to the 7.5 km road sign. Just a few meters before the mentioned sign, we will notice a parking lot and mountaineering direction signs by the road.

Route description:
Warning! Due to crossing private property, the trail is no longer passable and is closed. Data from 2024.

From the parking lot we return a few meters back, cross a small bridge and head to the footpath in the direction of Žavcarjev vrh. The marked trail, which runs along a cart track, soon enters the forest, where it then ascends moderately. Higher the cart track turns left, exits the forest and shortly after brings us to a hamlet of a few houses.
We continue the ascent along the road for some time, then the marks direct us left onto a footpath that climbs along the edge of the forest. The path soon enters the forest, where we reach a chapel, at which the path turns slightly to the left. Further we ascend along an initially gentle path, which higher up steepens somewhat and then brings us to a forest road, which we merely cross (right Sveti Duh na Ostrem Vrhu).
From the road we continue slightly left in the direction of Žavcarjev vrh, where we walk a few dozen steps along a wider cart track, from it we then go left onto the marked narrower cart track. Further on we temporarily leave the forest, then return to it and after a short descent return to the macadam road as well. We continue through the forest, from the nearby intersection we go right in the direction of the marked road (left continues Pot grebenskih kmetij) and then arrive at Koča na Žavcarjevem vrhu in one minute of further walking.
From the hut we continue right in the direction of Žavcarjev vrh, where we walk along a well-trodden path through the forest. After a few minutes of ascent we turn onto a slightly left cart track, along which we quickly reach the 915 m high summit.
We bypass the logbook box on the left side, then begin descending through the forest along an unmarked trail. Lower we join a cart track, which we follow straight ahead (from the right a somewhat shorter path joins, which branches off from the marked one at picture no. 15). A little further the path stops descending, at the cart track junction we take the one that starts ascending again. During the ascent we keep to the left turns, so reaching the indistinct summit along the equally indistinct eastern ridge.
