Šumahovo sedlo - Veliki vrh (above Mežiška dolina)

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 take the wide cart track which branches westwards from the saddle. A little further on, the rather steep cart track splits, and we continue to the left, on the wider cart track, which then leads us via another serpentine to the Big Peak, where the transmitters are located, and on the nearby object there is a registration box with a registration book.
