Rogla (Hotel Planja) - Lovrenška jezera (eastern path)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the Ljubljana - Maribor motorway, take the Slovenske Konjice exit and continue driving towards the above-mentioned place. From Slovenske Konjice continue towards Zreče, and we continue along the road in the direction of Roga. When we arrive at Rogla, we park in a large parking lot near the Planja Hotel.
b) First we drive to Lovrenc na Pohorju (to get here from the road Maribor - Dravograd), then we continue driving towards Rogla and Koča na Pesku. The dirt road then leads first to Mašinžaga and then to Koča na Pesku. From Koča na Pesku, continue on the asphalt road, which then leads up to a large parking lot near the Planja Hotel.

Path description:
From the parking lot, walk to the mountain direction signs located by the Planja pizzeria, and then follow the path in the direction of Lovrenška jezera, Sedla Komisija and Ostruščica. At first, descend slightly along the four-seater Planja, and when you reach a narrower asphalt path, follow it to the left for a short distance, and then the signs for Lovrenška jezera direct you to the right to a larger pasture. This is followed by a climb up a gentle grassy slope, and higher up the meadow is replaced by a sparse forest and we arrive at the top slopes of Ostruščica.
From Ostruščice, follow cart track down to the Komisija saddle, where the trail splits.
Continue slightly right in the direction of Lovrenška jezera and Ribniška koča (slightly left Lovrenška jezera and Ribniška koča - the western route) and continue along the wider cart track. A little further on, the marked path from Koča na Pesku or Mashin Žage joins us from the right, and we continue straight on towards Lovren Lakes. There are a few more crossings with short ups and downs, and then we start climbing on a partly paved path, where we climb on wooden bridges. Higher up, the path flattens out and you reach a crossroads where you go right towards Lovrenška jezera (left Ribniška koča and Rogla on the western path).
Only a few 10 steps further you reach a lookout tower, from which you have a nice view towards the plateau where the lakes are located, and from the tower you continue on wooden bridges, which lead you to the lakes during the dwarf pines.
The description and pictures refer to the situation in October 2022.
