Path description:
The route starts along the Primož Road and climbs gently north-eastwards. After a few minutes, we reach a crossroads where a mountain sign for Bricnik directs us to the left, and we quickly reach the beginning of the village of Sv. Primož nad Muto. At the next crossroads, the signs direct us to the left, and we then climb cross-country over a grassy slope. When the road turns right a little higher up, it loses its asphalt coating and passes through a forest, where it makes a right serpentine. Soon we are back out of the forest, where the path leads past the Sušek homestead, and slightly above the homestead we continue straight ahead or slightly right from the crossroads. Follow the macadam road around the turn-off to the Breznik excursion farm, and at the next crossroads, by the sign for the Janež farm, leave the road and continue along the marked path, which climbs steeply through the forest, but when it is laid, it joins the macadam road. Continue along the scenic road, from which a beautiful view opens up towards Pohorje, Uršlji gori, Peć, and in the distance you can also see the Kamniško Savinjske Alps. Pass the Pentat farm buildings on the left, then reach the asphalt road, which you just cross and continue towards Bricnik (the direction sign for Zavetišče Onuk - Glavar points to the right, but it is better to continue towards Bricnik for this destination as well). Then climb through the forest, and when you reach the Žaucer farmhouse, pass it on the right. There is a few minutes' cross-climb to the right and a left serpentine, after which the asphalt road and the marked crossroads are reached again.
From the crossroads, continue right in the direction of the Glavar Shelter (left St. Primož Church, straight ahead Bricnik) and follow the winding road, which will take you in less than 10 minutes to reach the Glavar Shelter, where there is a marked crossroads and a KPP stamp.
From the shelter, continue straight ahead (left Bricnik and Glavar's spruce) and initially walk along the beautiful views, then the road, which gradually begins to descend, turns into a forest. There are a few small crossroads where you go straight ahead, and when you reach a slightly larger crossroads, continue slightly right in the direction of Radelj ob Dravi (sharp left on footpath Bricnik, left on the St. Anton road, the straight path ends in the woods, sharp right Dobnik homestead).
The trail continues past an ecological island, the forest soon ends and we continue again for a short time, enjoying the beautiful views. At a newer house, the road splits and we continue slightly left in the direction of Sv. Treh Kraljev, passing the house on the left.
At the sign, the road returns to the woods and we walk along it at a moderate incline until we reach the Church of St. Three Kings, a few minutes away, from which we have a nice view.
Muta - Zavetišče Onuk - Glavar 1:35, Zavetišče Onuk - Glavar - St. Three Kings 0:55.
