Access to the starting point:
The start of the route can be practically in the centre of the city at the beginning of the city park by the sign for the Kozjak trail, or anywhere in the park up to Treh rybniki.
By car, exit Melje on the expressway through Maribor and continue along the railway station, at the first crossroads without traffic lights turn left along Tomšičeva Street, also the well-known avenue in the direction of Ribniško selo and park your vehicle somewhere near the park.
Path description:
At the beginning of the City Park, by the sign "The path over Kozjak", or by the Three Ponds, there is a concrete start of the route. It is easy to follow the mountain trail practically from urban Maribor itself through Ribniško selo. At the top of Ribniško selo, at the junction with Vinarji, turn right into the forest and under Marin's and Kaufman's banks, simply follow the well-marked and also undulating "shojeni" trail. Soon you will reach the upper part of the village of Rošpoh, followed by a descent into the valley, where you will cross the Kamnica - Kungota road.
Continue up by the chapel, past a large farmhouse with orchards, along an asphalt road. Somehow, St. Urban is practically in sight all the time and, with the excellent signposting of the path, the Church of St. Urban is reached at a leisurely pace.
After a tour of the surroundings of St. Urban, we continue from the crossroads in the direction of Gaj nad Maribor. After a rough, mainly asphalted route, you reach the end of the trail - the Nabašec crossroads.
