Ivarčko jezero - Uršlja gora (Plešivec) (Železarska pot)

Access to the starting point:
The Ivarčko lake is reached from the village of Kotlje, past the Roman Spring or Šrotnek.

Path description:
Park the car in one of the three car parks under the Ivarčko lake and head to the roundabout, where the trail takes you past the Uršlja gora signpost and along the road into the forest.
Continue under the newly built chair lift for a few moments until you reach a bridge, which you cross and immediately turn right into the bank. After fifteen minutes of walking, you can also take the Count's Trail, which branches off to the left - the Železarska Trail continues straight ahead.
When you come out of the forest, continue under the Jurček farm along the road to the Partisan Monument, where you turn right onto the road under the forest. At the point where the road continues into the forest, a signpost directs you to turn left up into the forest. Here you can rest for a moment and look towards Ravne na Koroškem, Strojna and Huhnerkogel in the background.
The route continues through mixed wodland and up a well-maintained and well-marked path, crossing forest roads several times.
After a good hour's walk, you can rest on a well-maintained bench and have a snack at the Uršljice spring 15 minutes higher up.
Shortly before the source of the Uršljica River, the Železarska and Grofovska Trails rejoin.
Climbing again towards the top leads us to the connection of the Slovenian Transversal Trail, which runs from the Postman's House. At this crossroads there is a beautifully arranged sign of the cross.
Continue along the transversal path, partly on the road to Uršlja gora. Just below the summit, the path from Andrej's home on Slemen joins the trail.
