Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Dramlje and follow the road ahead in the direction of Šentjur, Rogaška Slatina and Rogatec. In Rogatec signs for Donačka gora point us to the left. Only a little further, we come to the next crossroad, where we continue right again in the direction of Donačka gora. Further, we drive towards the village Sveti Jurij (further don't follow the signs for Donačka gora). In the village Sveti Jurij we turn left upwards towards the church of St. Jurij by which we park. We can park already a little lower on a parking lot by the road.
Route description:
From the church of St. Jurij we continue on the road upwards. After 100 meters of walking, we come to the crossroad, where we continue left. After additional few dozen steps of walking, we come to a farm, where a marked footpath turns right upward. The path at first ascends through a meadow, then turns right, where it crosses a lane of bushes and then by the cross brings us to the next farm. Here we continue upwards on a marked cart track which over a panoramic slope soon brings us to a crossing. We continue straight in the direction of the mountain hut Rudijev dom and Sveti Donat. After a few minutes of additional walking steepness decreases and the path turns left. Next follows a shorter crossing of the slopes towards the west to the church of St. Donat.

Discussion about the trip Sveti Jurij - Sveti Donat

Yes, no comment has been written here yet and personally I haven't walked the entire path between Sveti Jurij and Sveti Donat. The first six pictures - veduta, are unknown to me in real life, while 9, 8 and 7, if I'm not mistaken, I walk when connecting Boč & Plešivec & Donačka gora with Sotla spring - Macelj - Log. I still miss a bit towards the eastern summit up to the path from Rudijev dom. Been around here several times and someday I need to study the path to recognize unknown parts as walked.

Anyway, Donačka gora, I'd say the whole area between Boč and Macelj doesn't disappoint and is always a pleasant and interesting challenge in every season mainly due to natural beauties, openness and hospitality of locals living along the paths. Really a proper but quite lively and passable barrier towards the more northern Haloze and Dravinjske gorice...

Usually we start from sv. Jurij, then to the pass ..., but that there's so much elevation gain to Donat, zavijanje z očmi
LP!
