Access to starting point:
A) From Murska Sobota we drive towards Gederovci, and in Černelavci we go right in the direction of Grad. Further, we drive through few more settlements, where at the crossroads we continue in the direction of Grad. When the road starts visibly descending towards Grad, at the sharp the left turn we leave it and we continue right towards Mačkovci (straight - castle Grad). On the road through Grad we then past individual houses drive for approximately 1 km, and then we park on a parking lot at the cemetery.
B) We drive to Kuzma, and then we follow the signs for Grad. In Grad after the store Spar we go left in the direction of Murska Sobota and we start visibly ascending. When we get to a crossroad, where the main road turns sharply right, we continue straight towards Mačkovci (left - castle Grad). On the road through Grad we then past individual houses drive for approximately 1 km, and then we park on a parking lot at the cemetery.
Path description:
From the parking lot at the cemetery we continue towards the south, and from the main road we go at the first turn-off to the right. Next follows a moderate ascent, where we bypass some houses, and we quickly get to transmitters on Pepelšček.
From transmitters we continue few more strides on the asphalt road, and then we go right on a cart track which leads us by the edge of the forest on the left and by the field on the right. When a little ahead between two fields a grassy passage opens up, we continue right and after few 10 strides of additional walking, we get to the highest point of Pepelšček, where there are trigonometric point and an old metal pole.
