Liboje - Kamčič (via organic farm Kralj - northern approach)

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Maribor motorway, take the Žalec exit and continue towards Arji vas. At the crossroads at the end of the village, continue straight on towards Liboj. At Liboje turn left in the direction of Košnica pri Celju and follow the road for about 850 metres to a large private parking lot and a yellow house at the crossroads, where the road leading to the Kralj bio-farm branches off to the right. At this junction there is also a self-service stand of the farm and a nice signpost for the Kralj organic farm. Next to the latter signpost there is also a mountain signpost for Šmohor and Veliki Slomnik. You can park at a suitable place near the starting point.

Path description:
From the basic starting point described above (Figure 1) follow the signpost towards the Kralj and Šmohor bio-farm along the asphalt road up a gentle incline. However, 350 metres before the basic starting point described above, there is also an alternative starting point (Figure 2) at the crossroads by the chapel, where there is also a signpost for Šmohor and Veliki Slomnik on a tree. The two routes from the two starting points merge on a dirt road about 700 metres further on. The disadvantage of the alternative starting point is that there is no convenient parking place nearby.
From the basic starting point, follow the asphalt road for about 200 metres to the Kralj bio-farm, then continue in the same direction along the macadam road, which branches off towards the stream flowing under the Liboj wall of Veliki Slomnik. At the last homestead before the stream, the road turns into a track that runs right next to the stream. Soon you will come out on a dirt road coming from the right from the route of the alternative starting point. Continue to the right in the route back towards Liboje, but only about 100 metres to the first homestead on the left. Before a large retaining wall, continue sharp left up the dirt road to the weekend wall. Before the last highest weekend, bear left into the woods by the fence onto an unmarked track leading to the top of the rocky north face of the precipice, which is probably where Kamčič takes its name. 30 minutes to get here. There is a magnificent view of the surrounding hills and valleys on practically all sides of the sky, but the most striking is the view of the quarry at Liboje, which has already sunk deep into the eastern ridge of the neighbouring Kotečnik.
It is a 15-minute walk south along the ridge to the top of Kamčič. Kamčič has five less distinct outcrops on its back, the tallest of which is the middle one, which lies closer to the southern saddle than to the northern precipice wall. As we walk along the ridge, we can occasionally get a view of the neighbouring hills. From the top of Kamčič you can descend back to the starting point along the same route, but it is worth continuing further towards the southern saddle, from where you can return to the starting point along the marked route from the Doma na Šmohor, thus completing the circular route.
