Access to starting point:
From Krško we drive towards Sevnica or vice versa. Soon after the Krško, the road branches off to the right towards Brestanica (and from Sevnica a little before Krško left). We follow this road ahead towards Senovo, where we notice the first signs for Bohor (in Senovo we turn left). The road which then runs along the stream upwards, higher brings us on a poorly marked crossroad, where we continue slightly left upwards (the road which goes straight, still along the stream brings us to the mountain hut Koča na Bohorju. Our left road then makes two sharp turns and soon comes out of the forest, where after additional 100 meters of driving, we park on a parking lot by the information board.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the left unmarked road which after 10 minutes of walking, it brings us to the sharp left turn. In the middle of the turn, on the right along the stream upwards a cart track branches off in the direction of waterfall Ubijavnik. The cart track soon turns into a footpath which few times crosses the mentioned stream and eventually brings us below the waterfall. Only few meters before the waterfall, the path turns right and with the help of fixed safety gear it steeply ascends. The ascent in snowless conditions isn't demanding, but it is exposed to falling stones. On the top of this ascent we step on the road, where we continue left. After few additional minutes of walking, a worse road crosses the stream (before the bridge to the right - mountain hut Koča na Bohorju). Here we continue on a cart track which is ascending along the stream upwards. And increasingly steep cart track soon brings us to the next crossing, where we continue left in the direction of hospital (right - mountain hut Koča na Bohorju). The path ahead crosses a torrent stream and in a short diagonal ascent brings us to partisan hospital on Travni laz.
From the hospital we continue in the direction of Javornik, on a marked path, which moderately ascends through the forest. After a short ascent, we step on the forest road which we follow to the left, still towards Javornik. The road on which we walk, after approximately 15 minutes of walking, it brings us to a crossing, where the path branches off to the right upwards on Javornik - Bohor. Here we still continue on the road in the direction of Lisca to the next crossroad, where we leave the road and we continue on a cart track in the direction of Lisca. The path ahead at first slightly ascends through the forest and then in a gentle descent crosses a larger clearing, behind which we come on an indistinct ridge of Bohor. The cart track then past a cross brings us to the next crossing, where we continue right downwards in the direction of Skalica. After a short descent, we cross the forest road and then in a moderate ascent, in few minutes we ascend to the summit of Skalica.
