Access to the starting point:
a) From Dravograd, drive towards Maribor, but only as far as the village of Vas, where you turn left towards Remšnik. Then climb up to the above-mentioned village, where shortly before the parish church of St. George, take a sharp left. Continue past the homesteads of Kajzar and Helbel, continuing along the right-hand road, and then past the homesteads of Prelank, where you go left, and Korenk, which you pass on the left-hand side. There are some more crossings, where you continue straight ahead at the crossroads. When you reach the state border, park at a suitable place on the roadside. The border crossing point Remšnik is a few 100 m further on.

b) From Maribor, drive towards Dravograd, but only as far as Brezno, where you turn right towards Brezni Vrh and Remšnik. At a higher point, leave the road towards Remšnik and continue straight towards Brezno Vrho. Just a few metres further on, bear slightly right, then pass the farmsteads of Hager, Podržavnik, Kompar, Breznik, where you turn left towards Austria, then a few more crossings and you reach the border crossing with Austria. Turn left here and drive for about 500 m to the next crossroads, where you can park at a suitable place.
Path description:
From the starting point, follow the footpath that branches off the road at the signpost for the state border. The path leads westwards and climbs through the forest and along the state border. A little further on, we get some views of the Slovenian side, and higher up, when the path leads us out of the forest, we get some views of the Austrian side. There is a shorter, steeper climb along the upper part of the meadow and we reach the Church of St Pancras.

From the church, continue westwards, then quickly pass the chapel and reach a marked crossroads, from which you turn right towards hut Kapunerhütte (St. Urban on the left and the Slovenian trail to Kapunar). The route continues along the Austrian side of the border and follows the gently sloping cart track. A little further on, one of the paths from Ivnik / Eibiswald joins us from the right, and we continue towards the Kapunerhütte hut and the Radlje Pass. The way forward takes us past a lonely house (a cottage), then at a small junction we take the upper, left-hand road, to which we are also directed by signs. After a few steps, go right on the marked path, which leads through the forest for a while, and follow the signs at the crossroads. After crossing a pasture fence, you will arrive at a large pasture with a view of the Golica and the surrounding mountains. In the middle of the pasture, the trail leads past a nearby house and then gradually back into the forest. In the forest, we reach the national border and come to a crossroads where one of the paths to St Urban's Church branches off to the left, and we continue straight ahead and continue walking along the Austrian side of the ridge. After the crossroads, we pass a signpost and continue past a number of bird feeders. The trail then returns fully to the Austrian side and leads us past the Hubenlenz farm, where the view is once again beautiful. There is a short walk through the forest, and at the border stone XII 102, we reach the border again. Here, we are fully approaching the path on the Slovenian side, which leads past St Urban's, and then, after the nearby cross, we are once again away from the border. As the path continues to pass through the woods, it passes Waldgregor Farm, after which it continues slightly to the left along a narrower road. It does not take long to get back to the state border, with the Slovenian trail on the Slovenian side of the border. Walk for a few minutes completely along the Slovenian path, and then you will reach a hunting cross, where the paths diverge.
The way forward leads us along cart track or worse road, and after a few minutes we go from the crossroads by the water trough, slightly left on the ascending cart track. There is a bit of a climb and some views, and then we arrive at a marked crossroads where the path from Radlje ob Dravi joins.
The crossroads is reached at a small saddle between the two Kapunar peaks (the German names for the peaks are Kapunerkogel and Klementkogel).
From the saddle, continue in the direction of the Kapunerhütte hut, where you first walk along the ridge, then the trail turns right to the Austrian side and descends to the hut in a few minutes.
