Path description:
From the centre of the village, follow the path towards Osankarice, Černý jezero and Treh Kraljev, first walking along the pavement past the Mercator shop, the Pohorski Bataljona Oplotnica primary school to the Salama pizzeria, where you turn left and then immediately right, passing the pizzeria on your right.
The way forward begins to climb visibly on a narrower asphalt road, which leads us past occasional houses, and when we arrive in the Lačna Gora settlement, we also have a beautiful view of Oplotnica and the surrounding hills.
Higher up, at the cross, the signs for the Black Lake direct us to the right, where we pass the last house, after which we continue our ascent on the dirt road, soon turning left into the woods on a marked footpath. Climb steeply through the woods, cross the dirt road we have recently left a little higher up, and then climb moderately to reach the Church of Sts.
