Štore - Veliki vrh above Svetina (via Marija and over Svetina)

Access to starting point:
Štore is ideally accessible with the help of Slovenian railways. By road... you leave the motorway in Celje and practically in the center of Celje go towards Štore or Šentjur. You park the car near the Štore railway station, where there are enough parking spaces available and there is also the beginning of the marked mountain path.

Route description:
The beginning of the path is at the railway station in Štore. We go through Voglajna, where a signpost immediately points us to the right and soon thereafter straight practically through the area of the old Štore iron works. On the asphalt road, we continue in the lower part along Bojanski jarek to a new path junction, where we continue straight, left path ,,over Žlajfa,,. Soon the road turns sharply left a little uphill, flattens again at the sports field and behind some terraced houses we turn left on the forest road which passes into a forest path. To the left branches off the path ,,through Bojanski graben,, while we continue right upward. From the right soon joins the path from Celje and Teharij. We continue left on the forest road by two, three houses and then once again left on a forest path. Further, the path to Srebotnik branches off and soon after we come to the chapel carved into a rocky wall.
From the chapel we continue upwards on a forest path and we follow the signs and signposts. On a larger grassy clearing there is a junction, where we continue left to Almin dom, to the right leads the path to Tolsti vrh...
We follow the forest path to a junction, where the path continues upwards to Almin dom while we descend right downwards to the settlement Svetina. After a short tour of the settlement, we continue on the path of XIV. Division by the cemetery (grave of great traveler Alma Karlin, immediately left by the entrance) on the road higher in the direction of Kanjuce. At the larger homestead right on the road, also along the fence for horses we get to a wooden cross right by the road and we turn sharply right upwards on asphalt towards the only homestead, which we bypass on the right side and then we go immediately straight on a forest path - a good hundred meters to the top. The top is the highest point, marked with a border stone - geodetic. On the top there are also four larger distinct trees - beech trees. From the wooden cross past the homestead to the top the path isn't marked, but the traceability of the path is logical. The top is not panoramic.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Lahomniški sopot (1 h 30 min), Sveti Peter (Olešče) ( 30 min), Babni vrh
