Path description:
We start from the sign PD Pohorje in the center of the settlement Zg. Polskava (Mladinska ul. 12), over the bridge, by the river Polskava. We follow the blazes on the regional road to the crossroad Kočno, where we turn right (signpost - Polskavski vintgar) and then to the crossroad (Šmartno-Loka), where we turn left on the road for Šmartno na Pohorju. During the journey, we can view the waterfall Šum and the beauty of the river Polskava. When we arrive by road at the wooden bridge over the river Polskava, past the quarry, we must focus our attention on the blazes, as we continue on the macadam road straight above the river Polskava through the forest to a crossroad for Frajhajm, we continue straight into the forest, after some time of walking, we reach two farms, cross the road, and at the end of the pasture turn again straight into the forest. The path to Areh crosses the main road Hoče-Areh twice. Our destination is the church of St. Areh, next to the church is a mountain hut.
