Access to starting point:
We drive to Murska Sobota, and then we follow the signs for Hodoš. In the settlement Gornji Petrovci we turn left towards Kuzma. At the primary school Gornji Petrovci we go left in the direction of Stanjevci. Further, we drive past Evangelical church in Gornji Petrovci, and then we already get to the parking lot at the cemetery, and we drive a little further where we park on the last parking lot, which is situated at the end of the upper cemetery.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue towards the west, where we walk on a gently sloping asphalt road which leads us on a hilly terrain of Goričko. We soon get to Stanjevci, where we go past few houses, and when the road turns right, still before we get to the estate Mala rosa, we go slightly left on a cart track, on which in a minute of additional walking, we get to a nicely settled chapel in Stanjevci, by which there are information board, table and benches.
From the chapel we return few steps back, and then at the estate Mala rosa we reach an asphalt road which we little before left. At the nearby crossroad, we go straight, the village ends and soon also the asphalt ends. We continue on the macadam road which after the hunting observatory passes into the forest through which we are then mostly barely ascending. We eventually get to a marked crossroad, where we go sharply right in the direction of the church of St. Ana, and there we get in few minutes of additional walking through a pine forest.
