Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Žalec, and then we continue driving in the direction Velenje. In the main roundabout in Velenje we continue right (direction Dravograd and Slovenj Gradec), and then we follow the main road to Mislinja, where on one of the parking lots we park (we can park on a macadam parking lot by the crossroad, where the road branches off to the right in Mislinjski graben or near the main bus stop).
B) From Koroška at first we drive in Slovenj Gradec, and then we continue driving towards Velenje. When we get to Mislinja we park on a parking lot next to the main bus station, or a little further on a macadam parking lot by the turn-off of the road in Mislinjski graben.
Path description:
Next to the main bus station in Mislinja we notice mountain signposts for Črepič, which point us on the old railway track (today cycling path) towards Dravograd. We at first walk on or by the cycling path, and then we get to a marked crossing, where the path on Završe branches off to the left. We go on the mentioned path (straight Črepič), which continues on an ascending macadam road. The road soon brings us in a smaller hamlet, after that for a short time it continues through the forest, where it soon brings us to its end at the lonely farm.
We go past the farm and we continue in the same direction, except that now we walk on a cart track which higher changes into a footpath. On a smaller forest shoulder, we come on a smaller crossing, where signs for Obrul point us right, and we continue straight on a marked path, which only few meters and then turns right and then starts considerably descending. The path soon flattens, and then in a moderate ascent brings us to fenced house. Mentioned house we bypass on the left side between the fences, after which we step on an asphalt road which past the tennis court we follow uphill. We for some time continue on the mentioned road, after that a little above the hamlet, by the edge of which stands a chapel with several saints, we continue left on a wide cart track or a worse road, on which then past few houses we ascend to the church of St. Vid on Završe.
We bypass the church on the right side and we continue past NOB monument, where we step on an asphalt road. We continue on the mentioned road which in few smaller crossroads we follow in the direction of Sveti Rupert. The path ahead leads us past the hunting lodge, after which we quickly get to the inn Gostilna Meh and church of St. Rupert above it.
