Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Mozirje, where at the roundabout, we go in the direction of Golte and Šmihel. A little further, we come to a crossroad at the inn, where we turn slightly right in the direction of Šmihel (left cableway Golte). We follow the road ahead to the village, where on the right side of the road, we notice a church. Only a little further, we come to the crossroad, where we go left in the direction of the mountain hut Mozirska koča, Golte (Here from the right joins the road from Koroška side on which there is possible access for Carinthians). The road then soon brings us to the next crossing, where we go left on the bottom road. The road then soon becomes a macadam, and we follow it to a large parking lot before the gate. The parking lot is on the right side of the road and is partly covered with grass.
Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, we notice signposts, which point us to the right on a footpath in the direction of the mountain hut Mozirska koča. The path which goes immediately in the forest is moderately ascending and after few minutes brings us to a smaller crossing, where we have two options to continue. We can continue straight on a steep or right on a gentle path. Both paths after few minutes join and higher bring us on a nice vantage point, by which there is a bench. Next follows only a good 10 minutes of a moderate ascent to the mountain hut Mozirska koča.
From the mountain hut, we continue left on the road to the chapel where there is a crossing. We continue slightly right (between the chapel and the path Severjeva pot) in the direction of the path Pot po Golteh. The path which is further ascending through the forest quickly brings us to ice cave (cave in which late in the summer is still snow). After next few minutes of ascent we come out of the forest on an ample mountain pasture Hleviška planina. Here the path turns right and in a gentle diagonal ascent brings us on a worse road. We continue on the mountain pasture ahead to a smaller saddle, where there is the next crossing. Here we go right on a footpath in the direction of Boskovec (straight downwards Smrekovec) and the path which few times ascends and then descends again we follow to a crossing few minutes below the summit (path is mostly ascending). Here we continue left and a moderately steep path we follow to the top which we reach after few ten strides of additional walking.
