Velika Varnica - Sveti Avguštin (steep path)

Access to starting point:
From the direction of Ptuj we drive on a regional road towards Trakoščan. In Videm pri Ptuju we cross Dravinjo and we continue in the direction of driving through Zgornji Leskovec. Just before the border crossing Zgornji Leskovec small signpost point us to the right, into a narrower valley. After approximately a kilometer asphalt ends and we continue on a good macadam road for approximately 500 m. When we notice a farm on the right and a chapel on the left side of the road, we park (by the road or on courtyard of the farm).

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go past a chapel and upwards on a pasture. At the end of the pasture, the path leads in the forest. Next follows a shorter ascent through a torrent at the end of which we come on an overgrown meadow. The path goes into the forest again and is ascending steeper. Over for some time we come to the road. There we turn upwards and we follow the road to the peak.
The path in the forest several times splits, but do not worry about it, because it soon joins again, so that you can't stray.
