Route description:
From the border crossing, we continue right on the path which continues towards the north. The path goes into the forest and is at first slightly ascending, and during the ascent, we cross a few gullies. Next follows a shorter descent all the way to the stream Klavžni potok / Klausenbach.
The path ahead runs by the stream and we soon leave the forest and arrive at a meadow. At the end of the meadow the trail blaze on a pole points us sharply right (trail blaze often isn't visible because of high grass) and becomes quite steep, with some steps to help us. The steepness higher up temporarily eases off, and we continue along the state border with Austria. Next follows an ascent in a few hairpin turns on the path which runs through mixed forest and on cart tracks.
Next follows approximately 20 minutes of steeper ascent and in front of us we already notice the lookout tower, to which only a short walk remains.
Despite the modest height, the peak is an exceptional vantage point.
