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 churchyard and the Studenicee Vine-growers' Association, continue up the cart track along the stone walls. The path to Studenice castle also branches off to the left, higher up and soon again to the left along the path a small stream with water flowing in a wooden trough. Further along the path on the right, enter through the iron gates, the old nun's cemetery of the Dominican and Magdalene nuns who have marked the history of Studenice over the turbulent centuries. Further left along the path, a stone and wood fountain and the remains of the reinforced concrete skeleton of the quarry. Somewhere the only "stranger", which somehow blended into the environment. A few more steps and the spring/springs of the stream are more or less rich in water. The world higher up is typically somewhere similar to a karst, limestone area and their water content depends on precipitation, melting snow. A few benches in an oasis of peace and quiet and a small wooden footbridge to cross the stream at higher water levels.
After a short visit, we continue upwards, 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 right, on the left the road leads higher into the world of Boč, Donačka gora. . .
Continue along the well-fortified forest road, surrounded by deciduous woods, towards your destination. Soon we reach Pritensko Plateau, to the right of the path are vineyards and also a nice view down to Studenice, Makole. . . , to the left of the path is a small hunters' warehouse of LD Poljčane.
Continue and again in the embrace of the forest quite steeply down. Soon the world above Podboč opens up and the Dravinja River, Poljčane. . . Soon we reach the asphalt surface and the Podboč settlement itself, which has only a few houses or homesteads. On the right side of the path is Černog's yew tree and a well/studenec, restored a few years ago, where the path ends.
The total length of the trail from Studenice to Podboč is about 2500 metres, 110 positive vertical metres and 100 negative vertical metres - very suitable for mountain bikes.
