Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Dramlje and we follow the road ahead in the direction of Šentjur. In Šentjur, at the traffic light we continue straight through the underpass under the railway track and we follow the road ahead in the direction of Šentrupert. Only a little after the sign "end of Šentjur", on the right side of the road, we notice a parking lot and signposts for Resevno.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we return along the road approximately 100 meters back towards Šentjur, where at the bus stop we notice hiking signposts for Rifnik. The marked footpath directs us to stairs, which ascend through a meadow. Further, the path crosses a short stretch of forest and then leads us to an asphalt road, which we follow for some time to a crossroad, where we continue left (straight Rifnik) towards the ruins of castle Rifnik, reaching them in five minutes of additional walking.
The description and pictures refer to the condition in March 2008.
