Access to starting point:
From the road Šentjur - Rogaška Slatina, between the settlements Šmarje pri Jelšah and Mestinje, we turn right (from the direction of Rogaška Slatina, left) towards Podčetrtek. We continue following the road towards Podčetrtek, and once in Podčetrtek, we follow the road to the parking lot for the church of St. Lovrenc, located at the upper edge of the settlement.
Route description:
From the parking lot, across the bridge, we cross the stream Župnijski jarek, then continue right towards the castle Podčetrtek and the Tower of Health and Joy. The path leads through the gorge of the stream Župnijski jarek, where we ascend along the macadam road. After approximately 15 minutes of walking, we reach a marked junction, from which we continue right in the direction of castle Podčetrtek (straight to the Tower of Health and Joy on Rudnica).
Further, we walk on a slightly poorer macadam road, which leaves the stream area and ascends diagonally to the right, and in about five minutes of additional walking, we reach castle Podčetrtek.
The description and pictures refer to the condition in December 2023.
