Access to starting point:
We drive to Oplotnica (from the Štajerska motorway exit Slovenske Konjice or Slovenska Bistrica - south), then first follow the signs for Osankarica, then the signs for the settlement Kebelj. When we arrive in Kebelj from the center of the settlement, we turn left towards the cemetery, at which we then park.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road which leads us on the upper northern side of the cemetery, and when after approximately 50 meters the road ends we continue right on a marked path (left - Oplotnica).
The path ahead leads us on a marked cart track which before the entrance into the forest turns right and continues by the edge of the forest, from the mentioned cart track, blazes point us to the left on a narrow cart track which continues through the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes, and when the path turns a little to the right, after a short crossing from the right another path from the settlement Kebelj also joins.
Here we go left and quickly arrive at the ruins of Kebelj Castle or Zajec Castle.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in April 2022.
