When we get to Borovlje / Ferlach, at the intersection a little behind the railway track we turn left (right from the intersection there is the Eurospar store), and at the next intersection after a few 100 meters we turn right in the direction of Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel. Towards Železna Kapla we drive to the settlement Podkanja vas / Wildenstein, where signs for Podkanjski slap / Wildensteiner Wasserfall point us to the right. There follows some ascent on a somewhat narrower road, and then we get to the well-maintained parking lot (by the starting point there are also a guesthouse and museum).

Route description:
From the starting point, we continue on the wide tourist path in the direction towards Podkanjski slap and Obir. At first, we ascend in a few hairpin turns, then after a short panoramic part the path passes into the forest and narrows a little. After a few minutes of additional walking a marked path to Obir branches off to the right from the wide path, we continue straight and after a minute of additional walking we get to the well-maintained viewpoint on Podkanjski slap.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in the year 2017 (August).
