Štore - Old Castle of Celje

Access to starting point:
Štore is accessible ideally with the help of railway. At the end, from the castle you descent on the path Pelikanova pot to the bridge over Voglajna and on the path under the railway you return into Celje... On the road...you leave the highway in Celje and in the center of Celje you go towards Štore or Šentjur. You park the car near the railway station Štore, where there is enough parking spots available and there is also the beginning of the marked mountain path.

Path description:
Combination of the most "right" mountain path from Štore past Marija on Celje hills to the juncture with the most "left" mountain path from Celje over the castle on Grajski hrib to Celje hills, which is also the initial part of Celje mountain trail.
The beginning of the path is at the railway station in Štore. We go through Voglajna, where a signpost immediately points us to the right and then it goes soon straight practically through the area of old Štore iron works. On the asphalt road, we continue along Bojanski jarek to another crossing, where we continue straight, left path,,over Žlajfa,,. Soon the road turns sharply left a little uphill, at the sports field flattens again and behind some terraced houses we turn left on the forest road which passes into a forest path. The path branches off to the left,,via Bojanski graben,, and we continue right upwards. From the right side soon joins the path from Celje and Teharje.
At the juncture with the path from Celje, Teharje we go right or a little downwards towards the castle or Celje. The path is very well marked, and unfortunately it mainly runs on asphalt paths. We mainly walk through the settlement Osenca, above the path, there are also two smaller local peaks Gorica and Osenica a little above the path on the right. The only path, which branches off is a marked mountain path towards Teharje. The entire route goes among houses or homesteads and friendly locals are always ready for a friendly conversation.
The distance of the path is around 6000 meters, 330 positive altitude meters and 190 negative altitude meters.
