Veliko Tinje - Sveti Urh (Urh)

Access to starting point:
We drive into the center of Slovenska Bistrica, where at the traffic light crossroad we turn in the direction of health center and further we drive on the road Partizanska cesta. Next follows driving through the town, where we continue straight, at the periphery of the town, at the industrial zone we go on the road towards Tinje, Sveti Trije kralji and lake Črno jezero. Next follows an ascent on a little narrower asphalt road which starts ascending and at first leads past the hunting cottage, pizzeria Gams, higher we go also through the settlement Visole, and few kilometers higher we get to Zgornje Tinje, where we continue left and then on the periphery of the settlement, we park at Dom krajanov and the fire station Tinje.

Path description:
From the starting point, we walk to the church, where first blazes show up, and we ascend on stairs to the church, which we bypass on the left side. Behind the church, we cross the access road and we continue by the hedge and then through a meadow we return on an asphalt road, on which we ascend to an unmarked crossroad. From the crossroad, we continue on the right upper road, by which on the right we notice a blaze. Little further we get to few more houses, where we go right on a cart track which ascends diagonally above the road. Through the forest at the crossings we follow the blazes, and few minutes higher we leave the forest and we continue an ascent on the path which continues by the edge of the forest. Higher, the path turns right and returns into the forest, through which we ascend to an asphalt road which we reach at a smaller crossroad, where we leave the marked path.
We continue across the main road, on a side road in the direction of Urh (to the left continues a marked path towards Sveti Trije kralji, and to the right leads the road on Zgornje Tinje), on which we diagonally ascend through the forest, and we quickly leave the forest and we walk past individual homesteads of the settlement Urh. Higher, the path returns into a dense forest, and from the right joins also unmarked path from the settlement Turiška vas na Pohorju.
We continue on the asphalt road which a little ahead makes a left hairpin turn and after the hairpint turn it brings us to a smaller crossroad, where we continue slightly right (slightly left - homestead Korant).
Next follows a shorter ascent through the forest and we get to more flat part, where on the right side we notice the church of St. Urh, which is from the road distant approximately a minute of walking.
