Access to the starting point:
From the road Maribor - Dravograd, drive to the village of Brezno, where you park in the village. The best place to park is by the cemetery near the parish church of St. Mary of the Assumption.
Path description:
From the parking lot, walk to the main road and cross it carefully at the pedestrian crossing. On the other side of the road, turn right and follow the asphalt path that continues between the River Drava and the main road. After a few minutes, when you get back to the main road at the bus stop, cross it again carefully and then take the side road that climbs up by some houses and where you will see the first mountain direction sign for Remšnik.
Leave the road at the right-hand bend and continue straight ahead on the marked path which continues along the Remšnik stream. Go over a small bridge and follow the path up past a house, and after the house the road widens into cart track, and winds a little further into a dirt road. There is a slightly longer climb along the dirt road, which climbs along the waterfalls and rapids of the Remšniškis stream.
Higher up, you reach a cottage, where you take the narrower road to the right, which you follow past another house to a right-hand bend, where you leave the road. Here, bear slightly right on a marked footpath (Spodnji Golen farmhouse on the right) and climb steeply through the forest, reaching cart track after Spodnji Golen farmhouse, which you follow to the left. Climb for a short time along a wooded ridge, then signs lead you left onto a slope, where the trail is laid. After a few minutes of crossing, another road is reached near the house, and we go right and climb again more visibly. Follow this road to the church of St George on Remšnik.
Go around the church on the left and continue past the registration box, the POŠ Remšnik to the nearby crossroads, from where you go straight on (right road to Brezno).
From the crossroads, climb up past the chapel and quickly reach the next crossroads, from which you continue straight on to Kapunar (on the left, the village of Vas). Continue past a few more houses, from which you will have a nice view back to St George's Church, and the road then turns into a forest, through which you continue for a few minutes. When you leave the forest, you pass a few more houses, and then you reach Helbel Farm, where the path splits.
Continue straight on (right St. Pankracij past the farmhouse Zgornji Kočnik) and follow the signs. Follow the signs higher up, and the road branches lead to the nearby farmsteads.
At the homestead Zgornji Murn, reach a marked crossroads where you join the trail that starts at OMP Remšnik and continue left towards Kapunar.
The road then gradually turns to the left and leads in a few minutes to the Slanik farm, where it is transiently laid. From the farm we continue for a short time with beautiful views over part of the Drava Valley and Pohorje, then the road returns to the forest and leads us to the Church of St. Urban.
