Path description:
After a short tour of the central part of Studenice, we continue to the left of the monastery complex by the parish. In the passageway/underpass between the parish and the Studenicee Vine-growers' Association, continue up the cart track along the stone walls and the Nun's Cemetery. Soon reach the source(s) of the Warm Studenica Stream, which are to the left of the path, and cross the stream on a narrow footbridge. Continue uphill, now on the old Roman road, which has preserved the original form of the basic route higher up to Boč over the centuries. At the exit to the forest road turn left, the road to the right leads to the settlement Podboč or Zgornje Poljčane.
Follow the forest road and at the first major crossroads/fork continue to the right, the road to Makol leads off to the left. Further on, the log cabin of the hunters of LD Poljčane at Golnik is reached on the right side of the road. Continue along the road, which levels out for a few metres. After a short flat area, continue ascending and soon reach a crossroads again, where you turn left onto a narrow forest road, to the right the path continues towards the tower at Boč. Following the narrow forest road between Kisovec to the left and Drevesnica to the right, you soon reach the 645-metre high pass above Formila. Continue downwards, Formila is already in sight to the right of us, and the marked mountain path from Makoli soon joins us from the left.
Formila is reached and there is a short extension to the crossroads, left for the partisan hospital, Gavez, Grillo's chapel, Plešivec. . . and right for the mountain lodge at Boč. The crossroads is also the contact with the Styrian - Zagorje or ,,B,, - Brother trail.
After a short visit to Formila, continue right in the direction of the Boč mountain lodge. Follow the well-fortified forest road through the forest. Further on, a forest road from the direction of Rogaška Slatina and also a direct mountain trail from the hunting lodge Rogaška Slatina and Gavez join us from the left, steeply downhill. Soon, in a few tens of metres, we reach a new crossroads and continue to the right, straight ahead is the direction for Kostrivnica. Continue on and regain the crossroads, where you go left on the classic forest mountain trail, which you follow through the forest. Soon on a grassy meadow and in front of a building under construction, which is right up and immediately left again on the forest road. Follow the forest road and reach the highest point of the trail today at the pass. . . 727 metres. Then a gentle downhill and a short climb again with the former Drevenik cafeteria on the left side of the trail. A few more steps and you reach the tarmac road and an important crossroads. Plenty of scope for possible continuation but today right and down by a small disused quarry right by the path. Soon afterwards we reach the church of St Nicholas at Boč on the left side of the path and the destination on the right. . . the home of the mountaineers of PD Poljčane at Boč. The route from Studenice ,,by road, is about 8500 metres long, 500 positive vertical metres and 80 negative vertical metres.

Po opisani poti sestopil danes iz Boča v nasprotni smeri...natančno po slikah. Megla, da bi jo lahko ,,rezal,,...Tudi Boč v megli je seveda pravo doživetje.
