Šumahovo sedlo - Šumahov vrh

Access to the starting point:
a) Drive to Mežica, then continue driving towards Črna na Koroškem. When Mežica ends, you will quickly reach a crossroads where you will turn right towards Breg and CŠOD Mežica. From the crossroads, start climbing, and at the hamlet of Zgornji Breg, go left towards Marholče. There is some more climbing and then you reach Šumahovo sedlo, where the Šumah Cross is located. Park in a suitable place near the cross.
b) From Črna na Koroškem, from the village of Mušenik, turn left onto the road towards Pikovy. At a small crossroads continue straight ahead (right Igerčevo), along the road which continues along the valley, and at the next crossroads continue left in the direction of the forest road to Koča na Pikovem (right footpath towards the Cottage at Pikovem). The road climbs for a while, then mainly crosses the slopes to the right, and in between it leads us past a couple of turnoffs to the nearby farmsteads. From the junction where the road branches slightly to the left to Koča na Pikovem, continue slightly to the right, then past a few more turnoffs to farmsteads and further crossing to reach Šumahovo sedlo, where you park at a suitable place by a sign.

Path description:
From Šumahovo sedlo continue left from the cross at cart track, which climbs moderately slightly to the left. After a short climb, a faint ridge is reached where cart track turns slightly to the right and ends a little higher up. From the end of cart track continue slightly right on a beaten track which climbs through the forest, and when it lays down it leads to a short lookout point which offers a fine view in the direction of Pec. Another minute of easy walking follows and the path leads us to the cross at Šumahov vrh, which opens up a nice view to the other side.
