Kebelj - Črno jezero on Pohorje (via Kos)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Oplotnica (to here from Štajerska highway exit Slovenske Konjice or Slovenska Bistrica - south), and then we at first follow the signs for Osankarica, and then the signs for the settlement Kebelj. When we get to Kebelj from the center of the settlement, we turn left towards the cemetery, at which we then park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road which leads us on the upper northern side of the cemetery, and when after approximately 50 meters the road ends we continue right on a marked path (left - Oplotnica).
The path ahead leads us on a marked cart track which before the entrance into the forest turns right and continues by the edge of the forest, from the mentioned cart track, blazes point us to the left on a narrow cart track which continues through the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes, and when the path turns a little to the right, after a shorter crossing from the right joins also the other path from the settlement Kebelj.
Here we go left and we quickly get to the ruins of Kebelj castle or Castle Zajec.
We bypass the ruins on the left side and we follow the blazes to the nearby asphalt road, where we go straight upwards. Only a little further, the asphalt road on which we continue turns right, and to the left the path branches off towards Osankarica (path Kebeljska transverzala). We leave the asphalt road only a little further, where signs for lake Črno jezero point us to the left into the forest. Next follows a shorter ascent through the forest and then past a lot of litter we reach the nearby homestead (from the opposite direction there is also a warning for dangerous dog). At the homestead, the road becomes asphalted and we quickly return on a little wider asphalt road, on which we continue the ascent. After few minutes, the blazes point us to the left on a grassy cart track, on which we are ascending by the edge of the forest, and higher past the house we again step on the asphalt road which brings us to the next marked crossing.
We continue left on a macadam road in the direction of the lake Črno jezero (right on the asphalt road - Sveti Trije kralji and lake Črno jezero past Sveti Trije kralji). On the macadam road, we walk few minutes, and then we go right in the direction of the lake Črno jezero. The path ahead at first leads on a cart track, and a little higher we ascend through a clearing. After the clearing, we return into the forest and we quickly ascend to the road near the homestead Kos, where we go for few steps to the right, and then left on a marked cart track. Next follows an ascent through the forest, where we follow the blazes, and the path leads past a viewpoint, from which a nice view opens up. Further, we still follow the blazes, and the path soon brings us to a wider macadam road which we only cross (left - Osankarica, right Sveti Trije kralji).
Next follows few minutes of ascent, and near the indistinct peak Adamov vrh the path flattens and then starts gradually descending. Next follows few more crossings, and the path gradually passes into more and more swampy terrain, where the path starts vanishing. Here we carefully follow the blazes and we have to be careful, not to get into the swamps. Such a path we follow to the nearby lake Črno jezero.
