Access to starting point:
A) From the road Maribor - Dravograd, between HE Fala and HE Ožbalt we turn left towards Lovrenc na Pohorju (from the direction Dravograd we turn right). On the other side of Drava we start ascending along Radoljna, and at the marked crossroad, we go left towards Činžat and Ruše. Next follows some ascent, and on the saddle where we notice red hiking signposts there is the beginning of the described path. At the crossroad, there aren't any parking spots, so we park a little away on an appropriate place.
B) We drive into Ruše, and then we follow the road towards Lovrenc na Pohorju. In the settlement Činžat we get to the saddle where we notice red hiking signposts, where the described path begins. At the crossroad, there aren't any parking spots, so we park a little away on an appropriate place.
Path description:
From the starting point, we go on the road following the signs Činžat and Koča na Klopnem vrhu. At first, we walk on an asphalt road which leads us past few houses, and at the crossroads, we follow the blazes and signs for Koča na Klopnem vrhu. Above the settlement, the asphalt ends, and the road passes into the valley of the stream Lamprehtov potok, along which we continue the ascent. Further, the road for some time becomes asphalted and at 728 meters above the sea level turns sharply to the right. Next follows a diagonal ascent, so that we gradually go away from the stream. Higher follows few crossroads, and at all of them we continue left. Next follows some more of a moderate ascent towards the left and we get to the chapel of the Holy Cross, from which a view opens up a little on surroundings.
