Access to starting point:
We leave Pomurska highway at exit Lenart v Slovenskih goricah, and then we go on the road towards Pernica. Soon after we leave the highway, we get to the settlement Zamarkova, where at the beginning of the settlement, we turn right on a parking lot, which is situated before Retirement home Sveta Agata.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a sidewalk in the direction towards Pernica, where we bypass Retirement home Sveta Agata, and then we on the pedestrian crossing carefully cross the main road.
On the other side of the road there is an information board, and we can continue left or right, because the path ahead runs around the lake.
Further is described the path which runs clockwise, therefore we continue left.
Through a lane of bushes we descend near the lake, where we continue on the path which runs by lush vegetation, which overgrows the shore of the lake. A little further, the path goes into the forest and it brings us to information boards of the learning trail "Dvoživke" (Amphibians). Only a little further, we go over a smaller bridge, and then we already get to a smaller observatory, from which a nice view opens up on lake, mainly in the morning time we can observe numerous birds from there. We continue on a forest path which continues by the lake, and then for some time ascend a little and the path on the top of the ascent brings us to a smaller crossing, where we continue slightly right, still around the lake (sharply to the left a short path branches off towards the learning board "Gomile").
Next follows a short descent and we get to the southernmost part of the lake, from where we continue on an embankment. From the embankment a nice view opens up on lake Komarnik, nearby castle Hrastovec and Pohorje at the back. On embankment we walk to the nortwestern part of the lake, where we go right through the bridge over the stream Partinjski potok and few steps ahead also over a smaller bridge. After the smaller bridge follows only a shorter walk and we get to the information board, where there is the beginning of a circular path, from here we only have 3 minutes of walking to the parking lot, where we started.
