Access to the starting point:
Take the Oplotnica exit (to get here from the Štajerska motorway, take the Slovenske Konjice or Slovenska Bistrica - south), then first follow the signs for Osankarica, then for the settlement Kebelj. When you arrive in Kebelj, turn left out of the centre of the settlement towards the cemetery, then park next to it.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the road leading along the upper north side of the cemetery, and when the road ends after about 50 m, turn right along the marked path (Oplotnica on the left).
The way ahead leads along the marked cart track, which turns right before entering the forest and continues along the edge of the forest, and from the above-mentioned cart track, the markings direct us to the left to the narrower cart track, which continues through the forest. Follow the markings through the forest, and when the path turns slightly to the right, after a short crossing, another path from the village of Kebelj joins us from the right.
Go left here and you will quickly reach the ruins of Kebelj Castle.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in April 2022.
