Access to the starting point:
a) Drive to Murska Sobota, then continue to the Hodoš border crossing. At Gornji Petrovci, turn left at a slightly larger crossroads in the direction of Kuzma and Martinje. When you arrive in Šulinci, leave the main road at the Village Fire House, which turns right, and continue straight ahead on a side road, passing the fire house on the left. When Šulinci ends, we soon reach the Balon Memorial and we continue to the neighbouring village of Boreča, where the road to St. Anne branches off to the left at a small junction (there are signs for St. Anne's Church and for the Catholic and Evangelical cemeteries at the junction). There are no parking spaces at the crossroads, so park in a suitable place nearby. b) Drive into Kuzma, then follow the road towards Petrovce. A little after the settlement of Dolič, the road to Mačkovce turns off to the right. Continue straight ahead here and turn right at the next crossroads where you will be directed by the signs for Boreča. Then descend through Boreča, and lower down you will see the signs for St Anne's Church, which point you sharp right onto the road (at the crossroads there are signs for St Anne's Church and signs for the Catholic and Evangelical cemeteries). There are no parking spaces at the junction, so park in a suitable place nearby.
Path description:
From the crossroads, take the side road towards St Anne and the Evangelical and Catholic cemeteries. The asphalt ends after the crossroads and we follow the dirt road downhill and continue along the Merak stream. A little further on, the road turns into a forest, and we go slightly left and start climbing. We soon leave the forest and the path opens up to a beautiful view towards Boreča.
The path ahead takes us past the evangelical cemetery, and the gently sloping road then leads us in a few minutes to the Church of St Anne, where there is also a Catholic cemetery.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in February 2021.
