Štore - Tolsti vrh above Celjska koča (via Marija)

Access to starting point:
Štore is accessible ideally with the help of railways. On the road... you leave the highway in Celje and practically in the center of Celje head towards Štore or Šentjur. You park the car near the Štore railway station, where there are enough parking spaces available and there is also the beginning of the marked mountain path.

Path description:
The beginning of the path is at the railway station in Štore. We head through Voglajna, where a signpost immediately directs us to the right and soon straight practically through the area of the old Štore ironworks. On the asphalt road we continue in the lower part along Bojanski jarek to a new path junction, where we continue straight, left path 'over Žlajfa'. Soon the road turns sharply left slightly uphill, flattens again by the sports field and after some row houses we turn left onto the forest road, which turns into a forest path. Left branches off the path 'through Bojanski graben', while we continue right uphill. From the right soon joins the path from Celje and Teharje. We continue left along the forest road past two or three houses and then again left along the forest path. Further on, the path to Srebotnik branches off and soon thereafter we reach the chapel carved into the rocky wall.
From the chapel we continue uphill along the forest path and follow the markers and signposts. At a larger grassy clearing there is a junction, where we continue right to Tolsti vrh, left is the path to Svetina. The path turns into a wide forest road, which we follow for about a hundred meters and turn left towards Tolsti vrh onto a narrower forest path. Further, along the only homestead in this part of the path, we follow the path across the meadow/pasture area and from the east reach Tolsti vrh.
