After a rather strenuous mountain biking Rudnica on the return another hiking miniature to St. Emma or centuries ago and still today by some sources called Vinarski vrh 345 m.a.s.l. from starting point Sodna Vas near Podčetrtek. smileShort but quite steep path, which for a few hundred meters was also E7 trail...Finished circularly on asphalt down to the valley...
What would I babble - maybe the photos will say more...

Today I extended the hiking miniature to St. Emma to the settlements Vidovica & Vonarje. Along the way branch churches of St. Vid and St. Areh and a lot of old architectural heritage. Conditions for walking are quite pleasant, because the terrain is undemanding, despite light rain in the last part of the path during the circular return along the road above the Sotelsko Lake. Places along the border river Sotla always surprise with a special pulse of perception of time and space...

After a year, return to the world around Sv. Ema and hiking activity which I extended this time and carried out between the settlements Vonarje and Spodnje Tinsko from the starting point Cmereška gorca. In the northern part the path led me along ridges, hills or rather ,,gorcas,, while in the southern part I did the path in the plain under the foot of Rudnica and along the Sotla river or Vonarje lake for a better insight into this world near the border on the edge of Kozjansko. Some of the path I also did on the Styrian-Zagorje circular path-B transversal, where I still have quite some ,,gaps,,. Weather cloudy/partly foggy, at times light rain and wind from colder directions. Path easy - the only mentionable was Tinski vrh and undemanding terrain.

Today on return from longer activity still ascent to Sv. Urban on Cmereška gorca. Somewhat above Styrian brother path on the windswept path between Podčetrtak, Pristava and Sv. Ema on prominent location and kind of antipode to much more known Sv. Ema on opposite hill. Pleasant walk mežikanje and nice relaxation after longer activity nearby at somewhat lower temperature before end of day for reflection on happenings in world above right bank of border Sotla...

Some yesterday's impressions from trip to church sv. Ema. Given some rain few days ago it's slightly icy in some places.
Marked path leading from Sv. Ema towards Olimje crosses railway track where passage is forbidden. Warning sign about prohibition is from opposite direction, so you learn when already across the track.

Regards, Tadej

That was the situation yesterday on the path from Pristava pri Mestinju to Rogaška Slatina.
The marked path is normally passable.
