Path description:
From the starting point, continue straight ahead, following the road as it climbs parallel to the nearby stream. The way forward takes us past the Blessed Well and, slightly higher up, the cart track turnoff to St Anne. Higher up, the road makes a sharp left turn, along which there are information boards, but we leave it just at this point and continue straight on the worse road, which only a little further on crosses the national border. Once in Austria, we continue along the minor road for a short distance before joining a wider dirt road, which takes us within a few minutes to the central part of the mountain pasture Luža.
From the shepherd's hut, walk to the second part of mountain pasture, and at the crossroads there, continue right in the direction of Pec (slightly left Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel and Topitza / Topitza. The ascent continues on a dirt road which climbs gently to moderately along the edge of mountain pasture. After about 15 minutes of further walking, we will notice on the left side of the road the mountain signs for Peca, which direct us sharp left to the ascending cart track. The cart track cross-climb quickly leads us to a newly built forest road, which we follow to the left. After walking along the above-mentioned road for some 10 m, turn right onto the ascending cart track, which ascends through a spruce forest. After about 1 hour's walk from the starting point, rejoin the macadam road, which leads in a few steps to mountain pasture Zgornja Luža.
From mountain pasture continue along the marked path (originally still a road) in the direction of Pec. After some 10 steps the road turns right and we continue left on the footpath, which starts to climb moderately through the forest. The path gradually starts to climb steeper, and it leads us higher out of the forest to slopes covered with dwarf pines. Next, we climb the increasingly scenic slopes of Peć, following a path that leads us over time to the main ridge, where we also reach a crossroads.
Continue to the right in the direction of Feistritzer Spitze and Pec (to the left Globasnica/Globasnitz) on a path that completely lays down and continues first along the precipitous ridge and then along the plateau-like world of Pec. A little further on, the path from the lower station of the cable car to Pec joins us from the left, and we continue straight on along the path, which climbs slightly and after less than 5 minutes of further walking leads us to the Bistriška Špica (Bistrian Spit).
