Route description:
At the end of the parking lot, immediately after the road sign which marks the beginning of the settlement Radenski vrh, we head onto the slightly left road, by which there are signs for Atilova pot. Further on, besides the mentioned signs, we are also accompanied by Knafelc blazes, and we walk on a gently sloping asphalt road which runs through the forest. When we leave the forest, we go past houses and a shrine, when the driving road turns right, we go straight on an increasingly steep footpath, which is also further asphalted or partly paved. The steep part of the path is short, and we quickly arrive at the edge of the main road, where we walk on the sidewalk, bypassing the Kapela playground on the left side. Only a little further ahead, the marked path towards Gornja Radgona turns right, and we continue along the main road and carefully cross it at the pedestrian crossing.
Also on the other side of the road we still gently ascend, then we cross a side road, on the other side we go right and then immediately left onto a steeper narrower asphalt path, along which with increasingly beautiful views we climb to the church of St. Mary Magdalene on a 312-meter-high hill.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in January 2021.
