Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, just after the road sign marking the beginning of Radenski vrh, take the road slightly to the left, where there are signs for the Atilovo trail. In addition to the above-mentioned signs, we are also accompanied by Knafelč's markings, and we walk along the gently sloping asphalt road through the forest. When we leave the forest, we pass houses and a sign, and when the road turns right, we go straight onto an increasingly steep footpath, which is also asphalted or partially paved. The steep part of the path is short, but we quickly reach the edge of the main road, where we walk along the pavement, passing the Kapela playground on the left. Just a little further on, the marked path to Gornja Radgona turns right, and we continue along the main road, crossing it carefully at the pedestrian crossing.
On the other side of the road, we also climb gently, then cross a side road, turn right on the other side and then immediately left on a steeper, narrower tarmac path, which, with increasingly beautiful views, leads up to the Church of St Mary Magdalene on a 312-metre-high hill.
