We drive to Maribor and then keep on driving upwards Dravska dolina towards Radlje ob Dravi. We must pay attention when we arrive to village Ožbolt. After 5 kilometres of driving away from Ožbolt a road towards Ribnica na Pohorju branches to left (across a bridge). When we come to center of Ribnica a signpost for Ribniška koča directs us left upwards. We follow this road which soon becomes a macadam only to a cottage. In winter time road is driveable only till a ski slope on Ribniško Pohorje. This extends our walk for 20 minutes.

Since the huts are focusing on the route between the two slopes slightly upwards towards Grmovškovega home. Us the way through the forest, a rare quick lead at the top where you open a lovely view.
