Access to starting point:
From the direction of Ljubljana on the southern arterial road in Maribor at the crossing, we stick to the direction Maribor-south. Then we follow the signs for Pohorje. At the large shopping center near the customs house, we turn left in the direction of castle Betnavski grad onto the so-called "Papeževa" road, and at the next crossroad, we turn right. We drive straight to road Streliška cesta. The path begins at house number 70. We can park the vehicle at the Tuš shopping center or at one of the inns along the road, "Poštela" or "Pri kostanjih," but we must ask for permission.
Path description:
The path starts on road Streliška cesta at house number. 70, which a trail signpost warns us about. The path turns into the street Pot na okope, where after a few steps a large sign warns that the Slovenian mountain trail starts here. The path leads us through the settlement into the forest.
Through a chestnut forest to a ledge of the eastern ridge to the historically very famous hamlet Habakuk (above it is located Poštela and an Illyrian graveyard from the 6th century BC. . . . ). A well-trodden path in zig-zags avoids deep cart tracks and passes into a mixed forest.
Higher up, the path directs us to the right and after a few minutes we step out of the forest onto a ski slope. We walk on a macadam road upwards towards the upper station of the chairlift. We cross the road and go upwards on the right along a strip of forest in the direction of an electrical transformer. We soon reach the next ski track, where a trail blaze on a power pole directs us straight, again up the ski slope (a chapel is on the right side of the path). Past a restaurant, where we already see the upper station of the funicular, we go straight upwards.
At the upper station of the funicular (1042 meters), we head west. On the right, we see the church of St. Bolfenk. On the asphalt road to a footpath turnoff to the right as a signpost directs us. Higher up, we turn to the right again. After a few minutes, we reach the next crossing, where we keep to the left path (the right one goes towards the lookout tower and Areh).
The path descends slightly, and we notice information boards about natural attractions next to it. At the crossings, we keep straight, and the path brings us to the edge of the forest, where a view opens up slightly to the south. The path ahead turns to the right and leads us onto an asphalt road, which we follow for about 5 minutes, or until signs direct us back into the forest. The path then ascends, passes holiday apartments, and transitions to a macadam road.
When we step onto an asphalt road a little further, we turn left and after a few steps turn right at the next crossroad. To cottage Mariborska koča, it’s 5 more minutes of easy walking.
