Access to the starting point:
Štore ideally accessible by rail. By road. . . leave the motorway in Celje and head towards Štore or Šentjur, practically in the centre of Celje. Park your car near the Štore railway station, where there are plenty of parking spaces and also the start of a marked mountain trail.
Path description:
The route starts at the railway station in Štore. Take the Voglajna signpost, where you are immediately directed to the right and shortly afterwards straight on practically through the area of the old Stora Ironworks. Continue on the asphalt road in the lower part by the Bojan ditch to a new fork in the trail, which points you sharp left on the asphalt higher up the hill to Žlajfa, where the road finally turns into a forest trail, which is solidly marked. The ascent is beautiful, alternating between forest and grassland. From the left we join the mountain trail from Štor via Šentjanž or Resevna and after a short continuation through the forest you reach Alma's home at Svetina.
From Alma's home, continue along the marked mountain path to Tolsti vrh, which you reach from the east.
From Tolsti vrh, descend along the western path to the top of the ski slope/ski facilities. Continue again in the forest along a narrower forest path to a fork, where you turn right towards Hotel Celjska koča (left for Laško). The path is again a bit wider and before the hunting lodge, turn left downhill, along the artificial lake behind the ski slope and after three or four bends along a narrower path in a conifer-rich forest, descend to the road and a few more steps to your destination, the Celjska hut.
