Access to starting point:
We follow Štajerska highway to exit Celje-center, where we leave the highway and go in the direction towards Vojnik. We follow the main road to Vojnik, where on the left we soon notice supermarket Tuš. Here we park. If it isn't possible to park here, we park at the beginning of Vojnik at the cemetery, this extends the path for 10 minutes.
Path description:
From Tuš we go in the direction towards Slov. Konjice and Dobrna, but we follow the main road only to prominent inn Hunter's Pub (on the right side of the road), in front of which we turn right. Then on the right side we already notice first mountain signpost. We follow this road, until we notice a house with illustration of the church of St. Jakob on Resnik. There a sign points us left. We all the time follow the road straight in the direction of the church of St. Florijan. At the church a sign points us right, on Way of the cross upwards towards the church of Mary of seven sorrows. Here a magnificent view opens up on Vojnik, Celje basin and Zasavje hills. Past the church we continue left on the asphalt road which leads past several chapels. We follow the road past the homestead to a crossroad, where blazes point us to the left uphill. At the sharp turn we continue straight in the forest, where we get on a well-marked path, which brings us to a viewpoint by the edge of the forest. Here we turn left past benches in the forest. The path runs on an indistinct ridge and several times ascends and descends. We soon descend on a macadam road and we continue on the road, until we come to a crossroad with an asphalt road. Here a sign points us straight, and from here signs and blazes lead us to the church of St. Tomaž on the top.
Besides the church there are benches, by which there is a box with an inscription book and a stamp. Below the church we descend on stairs also to Koča pri Tomažu, mountain hut which is open on Sundays and holidays.
