Planina pri Sevnici - Plešivec (Bohor)

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Sevnica (to here from Radeče, Mokronog or Krško), and then we go on the road in the direction of Planina pri Sevnici. When we get to the Petrol gas station, which is located right next to Planina pri Sevnici, we turn right in the direction of the company Montpreis and immediately after the crossroad we park on a larger asphalt parking lot by the cemetery.
B) We drive to Šentjur (to here from Celje, Štajerska highway exit Dramlje or Šmarje pri Jelšah), and then we follow the signs for Kozje and Planina pri Sevnici. At the end of Šentjur we go right in the direction of Planina pri Sevnici (slightly left - Kozje and Podsreda). Further on, we are mostly ascending, and when the road flattens and we notice the Petrol gas station on the right side, which is located right next to Planina pri Sevnici, we go left in the direction of the company Montpreis and then immediately after the crossroad we park on the parking lot by the cemetery.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we return to the main road and from the nearby crossroad we head towards Sevnica. For approximately 20 minutes we descend along the edge of the main road, from which beautiful views open up on the surrounding hills, and then we arrive at the settlement Stara Žaga, where the blazes direct us left onto a side road. The path ahead ascends past a few houses and we arrive at a marked junction, where the marked path splits.
We continue on the road in the direction of Koča na Bohorju (right - Skalica), which at the end of the settlement becomes a macadam road and brings us into the gorge of the Beli potok stream. Higher up, the road makes two hairpin turns, and from the junction after the second hairpin turn we go left. For some time we are still ascending on the road, then, when the road turns right, we continue left along the stream, where on a short steep section a rope helps us (greater slipping danger mainly in wet conditions and if frozen). A little further another rope helps us, then we ascend diagonally to the saddle north of Kamnega vrh (833 m), where we return to the road and where there is a marked junction.
Here a path sharply branches off to the left towards Šentvid pri Planini, left along the road a path leads to the eastern part of Bohor, but we continue straight on the marked road in the direction of Koča na Bohorju. We continue on the macadam road, walking along it to the first right turn, where we leave the road and continue slightly left onto a footpath (it is also possible to continue along the road, along the road we can also reach Lovski dom Bohor and the saddle between Veliki and Mali Javornik) and then follow the blazes at a few smaller junctions. Higher up we cross a cart track as well, then return to the macadam road. When a little further we reach the pass between Koprivnik on the left and Veliki Javornik on the right, we arrive at a marked junction.
We continue straight in the direction of Koča na Bohorju (left - Koprivnik, right - Veliki Javornik) and continue further on the road, which begins to descend; after a few minutes a path joins us from the left that leads over the summit of Koprivnik. Here too we continue straight on the road, to which a path from Senovo and Podsreda joins from the left, and from which a path branches off to the right towards Petrova skala and the window, continuing to the nearby Planinska koča na Bohorju, which is located on the right side of the road.
Left of the hut, at the end of the parking lot, we notice a grassy cart track, along which we ascend to the 915 m high peak in a few minutes.
