Access to the starting point:
Drive to the centre of Slovenska Bistrica, where you turn off at the traffic lights in the direction of the health centre and continue along Partizanska cesta. Then drive through the town, continuing straight on, on the outskirts of the town, and at the industrial zone turn onto the road towards Tinje, Sveti Trem kralji and Black Lake. The asphalt road is slightly narrower and begins to climb, initially leading past the Hunting Hut of the Gams pizzeria, then higher up through the Visole settlement, and a few kilometres higher up to Zgornje Tinje, where you turn left and park on the outskirts of the settlement at the Home of the Landowners and the Tinje Fire House.
Path description:
From the starting point, walk to the church, where the first markings appear, and we climb the stairs to the church, which we pass on the left. After the church, cross the access road and continue along the hedge, then cross the meadow back to the tarmac road, which ascends to an unmarked crossroads. From the crossroads, continue along the upper right-hand road, and you will see a waymark on the right. A little further on you reach a few more houses, where you go right to cart track, which rises crosswise above the road. Follow the signs through the forest at the crossroads, and a few minutes higher up, leave the forest and continue climbing along the path that continues along the edge of the forest. Higher up, the path turns right and returns to the forest, through which you climb to an asphalt road, which you reach at a small crossroads where you leave the markings.
Continue across the main road, onto a side road in the direction of Urha (the marked path to Sveti Trem kralji continues to the left, and the road to Zgornje Tinje leads off to the right), which ascends crosswise through the forest, but quickly leaves the forest and passes by the individual homesteads of the Urh settlement. Higher up, the path returns to the dense forest, and an unmarked path from Turiška vas na Pohorju (Turiška village on Pohorje) joins from the right.
Continue along the asphalt road, which a little further on makes a left serpentine and leads us behind the serpentine to a small crossroads, where we continue slightly to the right (slightly to the left homestead Korant).
There is a short climb through the woods and we arrive at a flatter part where we see the church of St Urha on the right hand side, which is about a minute's walk from the road.
Go around the church on the left and the road quickly leads to a crossroads, from which you turn left towards the homestead of Cehej (Cahej on maps) (straight ahead: homestead Močnik and the road leading further towards the settlement of Šmartno na Pohorju).
Some 10 m further on, the road leaves the forest, and we go right to the unmarked cart track, which continues through the forest. The way ahead leads us along the mostly folded cart track, which has a few forks, but at which we follow a wider path, which mainly leads us along the undistinguished east to south-east ridge of Repnik's Peak. Higher up, the path becomes completely flat and leads us to the undistinguished highest point of Repnik's Peak.
