Zvodno - Veliki Bojanski vrh (via Bojanski graben)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana–Maribor highway, take the Celje-center exit and continue driving towards Laško and Zidani Most. The road leads us through the center of Celje, then before the Savinja brings us to a roundabout with a fountain. Here we continue "straight" over the first bridge (direction Laško and Zidani Most) and follow the road to the next traffic-light intersection, where we continue left over the second bridge across the Savinja. Immediately behind the bridge at the intersection we continue right. After approx. 500 meters we arrive at the underpass under the railway track (on the right side a large parking lot and starting point in Zagrad), we drive through it and continue straight past the fire station in Zagrad. We follow the road through the village, which higher up in Zvodno brings us to a smaller intersection at the bus stop, where we notice signs and signposts for Grmada right, Hudičev graben straight, parking 1.2 km straight. We continue straight to the new parking lot (2020), and the road gradually flattens and narrows. New parking lot—our starting point—is located right by the road before the fish farm. Here we can park and set off on the hike along paths that lead either through Bojanski graben, or past Marija, or through Hudičev graben, or through Suhi potok. We can also reach the starting point from Dolenjska and Zasavje. In this case, we first drive to Rimske Toplice and then through Laško to the above-described second bridge, from where we continue according to the description.

Path description:
From the starting point, signposts for Hudičev graben first direct us along the road past the supporting wall back towards Celje, but already after a few steps sharply to the left onto a cart track that leads into the forest. We follow the cart track for about 100 meters to the junction just before Hudičev graben, where we leave the path into the gorge of Hudičev potok stream and continue left towards Pečovje or. Marija or Bojanski graben. We follow the marked forest path all the way to the next junction at the edge of the forest, where we join to the right onto the Celje Mountain Trail (CPP) along the forest road coming from the direction of Celje. Already after about 100 meters we encounter a new junction, where we leave the forest road and continue left downhill along the cart track in the direction of Štore or Bojanski graben. When we descend all the way to Bojanski graben, at the junction we continue sharply right along Bojanski potok stream. We follow the marked path in the narrow gorge along the stream, but only to the next junction, where the path branches off to the left. We follow the blazes, leave the gorge of Bojanski potok stream and continue in a steeper ascent. Soon after emerging from the forest, we join on the left a forest road that leads on a gentle slope to Zaroviš. After a few steps we reach the saddle on the south side of Veliki and Mali Bojanski vrh, where from the left at the junction the path from Žlajfa joins.
We turn towards the north, leave the marked path and continue along the edge of the forest uphill through the meadow in the direction of the higher peak. When we step into the forest again, a smaller unmarked path along the south ridge leads us to the vegetated peak. Not far from the peak, a few steps towards the west, a nice view opens up on Tolsti vrh, Srebotnik and Bavč.

On the way: Srebotnik (700m), Mali Bojanski vrh (600m)
