Access to starting point:
Tremerje is a settlement between Celje and Laško. From the direction Celje on the way to Laško before the inn Hochkraut at the crossroad we turn right towards Tremerje. In the opposite direction of the turn at the crossroad there is a bridge over Savinja, where on the other side of Savinja there is the central treatment plant Celje, financed by EU funds, which is shown on the sign. From the direction Laško at that crossroad we turn left. Immediately after the turn there is a settlement marked with the sign "Tremerje". We continue on the main road into the left turn, and then straight through the settlement approx 1 km towards the south, until we get to a large parking lot on the left side just by the railway. Near the parking lot on the opposite side of the road there is a sign for path Žerdonerjeva planinska pot on "Veliki Slomnik". Even otherwise, continuing further with a car no longer makes sense, because approx 300 meters ahead the flat part of the road ends, but in the past there was the underpass Tremerje, which was several times flooded.
Path description:
From the parking spot, we go on an asphalt road forward towards the south in the direction of Laško only about 30 meters, to the first turn-off to the right into the forest, where also a signpost for Veliki Slomnik point us to. The path starts on a macadam forest road which runs along the stream in the gorge named Potoki, into which flow smaller streams from Mali Slomnik on the left and Veliki Slomnik on the right. We stick to the marked path only about 100 meters, until we get to the turn-off, where to the right continues so-called. path Žerdonerjeva pot on Veliki Slomnik. We continue straight along the stream through the gorge. The road slowly passes into a cart track which starts moderately ascending. After 1.45 km of walking from the starting point, about 200 meters before the end of the gorge and just before the power line above us from the cart track a smaller footpath branches off slightly to the right upwards, but for the sake of recognition at that crossing there is placed a stone cairn. We continue on a smaller footpath, after sharp the left turn at the column of a power line, a view opens up on Mali Slomnik. We continue to the right, few meters also slightly downwards, and then again after sharp the left turn even more beautiful view opens up on the south hills, and at the same time also towards the before mentioned column of power line. We continue to the right and slightly upwards, until we get to a crossing with a cross, from where from the left comes a marked path on the forest road from Liboje in the direction of Veliki Slomnik.
We continue right on a marked path. On the left we soon notice another column of the before mentioned power line. Forest road passes into a narrower forest path, where we continue with the ascent higher on a little more rocky terrain. We soon reach beautiful viewpoint Libojska stena, where we can take a rest with nice views on the near and far surroundings. After the views follows few more minutes of pleasant and easy continuation on the ridge in the direction of east and then we reach the peak of Veliki Slomnik, where there is a table with benches, new signposts (2020), an inscription book and a stamp.
