Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Ravne na Koroškem, and then we continue driving towards Mežica. After Prevalje we will get to a smaller settlement Poljana, where we park on a parking lot opposite of the church of St. John the Baptist. By the parking lot is situated NOB monument and Kocka bar.
B) From Črna na Koroškem we drive towards Mežica and forward towards Ravne na Koroškem. In the settlement Poljana, only a little after the crossroad, where a road towards Austria branches off to the left, before the church of St. John the Baptist we turn left on a parking lot by NOB monument and by Kocka bar.
C) From the direction Austria through the border crossing Holmec we drive in Slovenia, and after few kilometers at the crossroad we turn left towards Ravne na Koroškem. Only a little after the crossroad, where we join the road Mežica - Prevalje before the church of St. John the Baptist we turn left on a parking lot by NOB monument and by Kocka bar.
Path description:
From the starting point, we carefully cross quite busy road Prevalje - Mežica, and then at the crossroad of two macadam roads we continue on the left, which continues behind the church of St. John the Baptist. Behind the church, we once again continue right, and then we lightly descend to the bridge over the river Meža. On the other side of the bridge we go left, after that on a tree we notice a signpost, which points us right in the forest. After a short ascent on a cart track path splits, and we choose the slightly left path in the direction of Leše churches (right Volinjak).
We continue on a cart track which is diagonally ascending towards the left, and at the crossings we follow the yellow signs. Higher the forest ends and in front of us, we already notice Leše churches, to which we have only a short walk.
After churches we continue right on a footpath which higher passes into the forest, and after a shorter ascent joins the macadam road. On the road, we lightly ascend and already after few 10 meters we get to a marked crossroad, where we continue on a slightly left road in the direction of Volinjak and the path "skrivnostni svet Žal žen" (right Prapar and Stovčnik). The path ahead at first continues through the forest and then past a watering-place and by ample pasture. A little higher, the road brings us to a smaller hamlet at the farm Hermanko, where on one of buildings we notice a caption Volinjak, and we still continue on the road, on which we get to few minutes distant crossroad, by which there is situated bigger chapel.
From the crossroad, we continue straight, on the road which continues on the left side of chapel (slightly right road which leads towards Mežica, sharply right footpath on Volinjak). After few 10 strides marked path in Mežica branches off to the right downwards, and we continue on a macadam road towards the homestead Andrej. The path ahead leads us past the homestead Andrej, and then continues at first on the western, after that also on the south side of Andrejev vrh. Before the homestead Najevnik we reach a smaller saddle, by which there is a chapel, and next to it we leave the macadam road and we continue sharply left, on the path which starts ascending on a ridge. This path we then follow all the way to few minutes distant Andrejev vrh.
