Access to the starting point:
a) Drive to Slovenj Gradec, then continue to Stary trg, Kotlje and Ravenna na Koroškem. Before the road starts to climb, take the exit from the roundabout in the direction of Stary trg. A little further on, go left and climb up to the large parking lot next to the parish church of St. Radegunda, where you park.
b) Take the Ravne na Koroškem, then from the roundabout in the middle of the town, continue in the direction of Kotelj and Slovenj Gradec. Continue through Pratnekar and at the beginning of Kotelj turn left towards Slovenj Gradec. There is a gradual climb up to a small pass and then a descent towards Slovenj Gradec. When the road stops descending, take the exit from the roundabout in the direction of Stará trg. A little further on, turn left and climb up to the large parking lot next to the parish church of St. Radegunda, where you park.
Path description:
From the end of the parking lot, continue along the wide lane, which splits at Station II of the Stations of the Cross.
Continue slightly right along the lower path (the marked path continues slightly left), which briefly becomes completely flat, and after crossing a small stream, begins to climb more steeply at the next stations of the cross. It then climbs over a grassy slope, then returns to the woods and joins a macadam road higher up, which is followed to the right and climbs to the top of Castle Hill, where the Church of St Pancras stands.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2019 (February).
