Trögern - Kärntner Storschitz / Pristovški Storžič

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - vzhod and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko. From Zgornje Jezersko we continue driving towards Austria, and we are driving there to the settlement Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel, where in a little larger crossroad we turn left towards settlements Obirsko / Ebriach, Šajda / Zell - Schaida and Korte / Trögern. Ahead we few kilometers drive through the valley of the stream Obirski potok, and then we turn left towards the settlement Korte / Trögern. Further, we drive through gorge Skoz peči, to the already mentioned settlement, where we park on a large parking lot by the former inn Pristovnik.
To the starting point, we can come also from the valley Savinjska dolina, namely over the border crossing Pavličev vrh.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue past the information board and a gate, to the nearby hiking signpost for Pristovški Storžič / Kärntner Storschitz. For a short time, we continue on the road, and then blazes point us to the right on a marked shortcut. We quickly return on the road, and we reach it right at the crossroad, where we continue on a worse right road. We follow it few minutes, and then blazes point us to the left on a little steeper and partly overgrown cart track which higher changes into a footpath, and a little higher it joins a wider macadam road. On a wide road we walk to the first crossroad, and there we continue left following the signs "Kärntner Storschitz". At the right turn, we leave also this road and we continue the ascent on the path which higher few more times crosses the mentioned road or in some parts it gets only very close to it. Higher, the path returns on the road, and we follow it to a marked crossing, where joins the path from Jezerski vrh (an easier path) and the path from Bela / Bad Vellach.
From here we continue in the direction of Pristovški Storžič on the path which goes into the forest and gradually starts ascending steeper. During the ascent through the forest the path for few meters quite steeply ascends (in wet dangerous for slipping), and then it flattens and with the help of steel cables crosses few more meters of a little steeper slope (in the dry undemanding). Above the steep part, the path flattens a little and out of the forest brings us into a lane of dwarf pines, through which in few minutes we ascend to the nearby peak.
