Access to starting point:
Štore is accessible ideally with the help of railways. By road... you leave the highway in Celje and practically in the center of Celje head towards Štore or Šentjur. You park the car near the Štore railway station, where there are enough parking spots available and also the beginning of the marked mountain path.
Route description:
The beginning of the path is at the railway station in Štore. We head through Voglajna, where a signpost immediately directs us right and soon straight practically through the area of the old Štore ironworks. On the asphalt road we continue in the lower part along Bojanski jarek to the new path junction, where we continue straight, left is the path "over Žlajfa". Soon the road turns sharply left somewhat uphill, flattens again by the sports field and after a few row houses we turn left onto the forest road, which turns into a forest path. To the left branches off the path "through Bojanski graben", while we continue right uphill. From the right soon joins the path from Celje and Teharje. We continue left along the forest road past two or three houses and then again left onto the forest path. Further on, the path to Srebotnik branches off and soon thereafter we reach the chapel carved into the rocky wall.
From the chapel we continue uphill on the forest path and follow the signs and signposts. On a larger grassy clearing there is a junction, where we continue left to Almin dom, right is the path to Tolsti vrh... We follow the forest path and from the right joins the path from Svetina or rather the path of the 14th Division. In a gentle ascent we soon reach Almin dom na Svetini.

Today towards Almin dom on this "walking path". Markings poor, no signs for Almin dom na Svetini, but at the top it was clear to me, since the hut has been closed for four years. Shame, because it's really nice.

Slightly "cynical-sarcastic" note about the "walking path"... I agree, but continuations can be real ones, Lisca, Veliko Kozje, Bohor and more, and on nearby Srebotnik you can even "climb" something. In my opinion, the markings are far from bad, correctly marked and the path is well traceable. Yes, I should emphasize that the hut is closed, obviously too big "colossus" for this world, but in the settlement below in Svetina there is an open bistro, if I'm not mistaken "Svetinčan", and also Celjska koča and Pečovniška koča are relatively close. This path and the neighboring ones are mainly used by locals and perhaps those seeking wider connections. Still, it is also an official PZS mountain path. In Slovenia there are about 9000 km of marked mountain paths, everyone chooses their own difficulty, length and it's probably not a problem if interesting "localities" are presented on the forum pages, especially from the perspective of broader awareness and knowledge of the space.
