Jakobe - Feistritzer Spitze (climbing way)

Access to the starting point:
a) Drive to Črna na Koroškem, then follow the signs for Koprivna and Podpeco. Drive along the Meži River for a while, then turn right at the crossroads in the direction of Podpeca, Dom na Peci and Koča na Pikovem. At Podpeca the asphalt ends and we follow the signs for Dom na Peci. Higher up, at the Vrh šteng pass, the road from Mežica joins us from the right, and we continue to follow the signs for Dom na Peci, sometimes we also see "motorway" signs. Continue on the dirt road, and at the last junction follow the signs for the parking area. Follow the road to its end, where you park at the Jakobe parking lot.
b) Drive to Luce (to get here from Mozirje or from Kamnik via the Volovljek (Kranjski Rak) pass), then continue towards the Logar valley. In the village Solčava, leave the main road towards the Logar valley and continue driving to the right towards Podolševa, the pass Spodnje Sleme and Črna na Koroškem. The road then loses its asphalt surface, and after a few kilometres we turn right at the crossroads in Podolševa towards Črna na Koroškem. The road, which continues to climb mainly in a transverse direction, leads us after a while to the Spodnje Sleme Pass. From the pass the road starts to descend and we follow it in the direction of Črna na Koroškem. After a few kilometres, when we descend into the valley, we turn right at the crossroads towards Črna na Koroškem (Koprivna on the left). We descend along the main road towards Črna na Koroškem, and the road leads us first past the turnoff to the Tople valley, and a little lower down to the turnoff to Podpeca, Koča na Pikovem and Dom na Peci. Continue along the above-mentioned road, which quickly leads to Podpeca. In Podpeca the asphalt ends and we follow the signs for Dom na Peci. Higher up, at the Vrh šteng pass, the road from Mežica joins us from the right, and we continue to follow the signs for Dom na Peci, sometimes also seeing the "motorway" signs. Continue driving on the dirt road, and at the last junction follow the signs for the parking lot. Follow the road to its end, where you will park in the Jakobe parking lot.
c) Take the Mežica, where you follow the signs for Peca. Continue towards Border crossing Mežica, and before the border crossing, turn left onto the road towards Peca. Higher up, at the Vrh šteng pass, the road from Podpeca joins us from the left, and we follow the signs for Dom na Peci, sometimes we also see "motorway" signs. Continue on the dirt road, and at the last junction follow the signs for the parking area. Follow the road to its end, where you will park in the Jakobe parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the signs Dom na Peci and follow cart track right upwards. After a short climb, you will reach a crossroads, where you continue to the right and continue climbing along cart track. Cart track then gradually becomes less steep and is soon abandoned. The markings direct you to the left onto a footpath, which you then follow for some time as you climb through the forest. The path through the forest then leads us back to the narrower cart track, where we continue to the right and reach Dom na Peci in about 5 minutes of further walking.
From the house, follow the signs for the top of Peć. Initially, we cross the slopes below Mala Peca in an ascent, and then the path leads us out of the forest to a grassy ridge, where we have a beautiful view of the Kamniško Savinjske Alps. The path continues up the meadow and leads to a crossroads.
Take the left for the 'Very difficult path' signs (easier path on the right). From the crossroads, the path then crosses the slopes to the north-west and soon leads to the first fixed safety gear. The path then turns to the right and climbs very steeply uphill along fixed safety gear. There is a short, slightly exposed crossing and then some steep climbs along a steel line. The challenging part of the route soon ends and there is a short climb through a slope covered with dwarf pines. From dwarf pines the path leads to a grassy slope, where we soon reach a fork in the path, where an easier path joins from the right.
Continue left and there is only one last climb to the top of Peć on an easy slope.
From Petzen continue on the marked path, which begins to descend moderately towards Knips saddle. After about 20 minutes of descending, we reach the information boards at the saddle, where the path from the Topla valley joins us from the left.
Continue straight ahead on the moderately steep path, which is joined only slightly higher up by the marked path from the Peca / Petzen ski resort (ski resort on the Austrian side of the mountain). Continue ascending the scenic slope, and after a few minutes' further walking the path leads to the grass-covered Končnikov vrh. The path ahead starts to descend again and just a little further on it leaves the national border and then continues only on the Austrian side. There follows a pleasant walk with a few descents and ascents all the way to the top of the Bistriška Spit. Here the path starts to climb steeply and within a few minutes of further walking leads us to a scenic peak, in the middle of which stands a larger cross.
