Weinebene - Jagdhaus Straßerhalt

Access to starting point:
A) Via one of the border crossings with Austria (Korensko sedlo, Karawanks Tunnel, mountain pass Ljubelj, mountain pass Jezerski vrh, mountain pass Pavličev vrh) we drive to Austria, and then we continue driving on the so-called southern motorway towards Graz. On the mentioned motorway we drive to the town of Wolfsberg, where we leave the motorway, and when we get to the old or regional road we continue driving in the direction of the town of St. Gertraud. In the town of St. Gertraud we notice signs for the alpine pass Weinebene, which point us to the right on an ascending asphalt road. On the mentioned road, we drive approximately 18 km, and then we get to the mentioned alpine pass, which is situated at an altitude of 1668 m. We park on a large marked parking lot by the pass.
B) Via the border crossing Holmec or Vič we drive to Austria, and then we continue driving towards the town of Wolfsberg. From Wolfsberg we continue on a regional road in the direction of the town of St. Gertraud. In the town of St. Gertraud we notice signs for the alpine pass Weinebene, which point us to the right on an ascending asphalt road. On the mentioned road, we drive approximately 18 km, and then we get to the mentioned alpine pass, which is situated at an altitude of 1668 m. We park on a large marked parking lot by the pass.
C) First, we drive to Maribor, and then we continue driving on the motorway towards the border crossing Šentilj and further on the Austrian motorway towards Graz. We leave the mentioned motorway at the exit for the town of Lipnica / Leibnitz. When we leave the motorway at the roundabout, we continue in the direction of the town of Lipnica / Leibnitz and further we drive south of the village Gralla, which is today already some kind of peripheral part of Lipnica. Further, the road leads us past the industrial or commercial zone, and at the roundabout by the Hofer store we continue "straight" on the second exit in the direction of the town of Lonč / Deutschlandsberg. Further, we drive for some time on the main road, and after the village Graschach we turn right in the direction of the town of Lonč / Deutschlandsberg. In a roundabout right next to the town of Lonč / Deutschlandsberg, we continue "straight" in the direction of the alpine pass Weinebene. From here on, the road starts ascending steeper, and we follow it approximately 20 km to the already mentioned pass, where we park on an arranged parking lot.

Path description:
From the pass Weinebene we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of Volšperk / Wolfsberg, or the marked path towards Gh. Pfeiferstocker and Gh. Weberwirt and descend for a little less than 10 minutes by the edge of the asphalt road. When the lower asphalt road turns left, we continue straight on the marked path, which crosses a pasture. A little further, we reach a narrow strip of forest, where we cross a pasture fence, and behind it, in a few steps, we descend to a macadam road, which we reach right at a turn.
We continue straight or slightly left and keep following the blazes. Further on, we slowly descend, and at a few crossroads, we follow the blazes or just continue straight. We then follow the marked path all the way to the mountain pasture, where slightly below the marked path is located the hunting cottage Jagdhaus Straßerhalt.
