Access to the starting point:
Leave the Štajerska motorway at exit Maribor - centre, then follow the signs for Dogoše and Spodnji Duplek. Follow the signs for Vurberk, and from the roundabout at Dvorjane take the exit for Ptuj. As the road climbs higher, you will come to a crossroads with the cemetery on the left and the Kultur dom Vurberk on the right. Park in the parking lot below the cemetery, or in the parking lot next to the cultural centre.

Path description:
Continue along the parking lot of the Cultural Centre Vurberk and climb slightly to the nearby crossroads, where the road to the castle turns left, and we continue straight ahead along the marked path, which climbs higher up the stairs. Above the steps, we return to the road and then quickly pass the parish church of St Mary of the Assumption to reach Vurberk Castle.
