Sveti Jurij (Remšnik) - Kapunerhütte

Access to the starting point:
a) From the road Dravograd - Maribor, in the village of Vas, turn left towards Remšnik. There is a climb of a few kilometres, and we follow the road to Remšnik, where we park in the parking lot under the Church of St. George.
b) From the road Maribor - Dravograd, in the village of Brezno, turn right towards Remšnik and Brezni Vrh. Follow the signs for Remšnik and park in the parking lot under the church of St. George.

Path description:
From the parking lot under the church, follow the access road to the starting point down to the nearby crossroads, from which you continue straight ahead. The road continues past the chapel and quickly reaches the next crossroads, from which you continue straight ahead towards Kapunar (on the left, the village of Vas). You continue past a few more houses, from which you get a nice view back towards St George's Church, and the road then turns into a forest, through which you continue for a few minutes. When you leave the forest, you pass a few more houses, and then you reach Helbel Farm, where the path splits.
Continue straight on (right St. Pankracij past the farmhouse Zgornji Kočnik) and follow the signs. Follow the signs higher up, and the road branches lead to the nearby farmsteads.
At the homestead Zgornji Murn, reach a marked crossroads, where you join the trail starting at OMP Remšnik and continue left towards Kapunar.
The road then gradually turns to the left and leads in a few minutes to the Slanik farm, where it is transiently laid. From the farm we continue for a short time with beautiful views over part of the Drava Valley and Pohorje, then the road returns to the forest and leads us to the Church of St. Urban.
From the church, continue along the road, and then, in front of the Buzenik farm, turn right onto cart track, which takes you past the chapel into the forest. The cart track ascends in a few minutes to the national border, where you get quite close to the Austrian route.
Continue on the Slovenian side of the border, where the Austrian trail turns slightly to the right at a wooden cross. After a few minutes of climbing, the two paths converge again and then run parallel to a hunting cross, where our path turns slightly to the left. After a few minutes of walking, you will reach the hut of the radio amateurs at Kapunar, where there is a registration box and from where you will have a nice view of the Slovenian side.
From the hut, continue slightly to the right in the direction of hut Kapunerhütte.
Continue along the initially gently sloping path, which crosses the slopes to the left and then climbs crosswise to the western ridge of Kapunar, from where a fine view opens up towards Austria.
Continue left (right peak Kapunar 2 minutes) and descend along the boundary ridge to a small saddle between the two peaks of Kapunar.
From the saddle, where we join a slightly shorter path that climbs the border ridge even before the radio-amateurs' hut, continue in the direction of hut Kapunerhütte. From the saddle, initially still walking along the ridge, the trail then turns right to the Austrian side and descends in a few minutes to the aforementioned hut.
Remšnik - St. Urban 0:55, St. Urban - Amateur Radio hut at Kapunar 1:00, Amateur Radio hut at Kapunar - Kapunerhütte 0:15.
