Route description:
The path at the beginning leads through a well-maintained park, where we follow the left forks, then after a smaller bridge we quickly arrive at greenhouses, which we bypass on the left side. For a short time we still continue in the same direction, then a wider path continues left and right, we continue straight, where we look for an overgrown footpath that ascends for a few steps. The path ahead leads us through overgrown terrain, where we also go past an overgrown sign, behind it we step onto an asphalt road, which we follow to the right. Here, looking back, we notice a larger pasture and a view that reaches towards Osojnica, we quickly leave the road and continue right onto a more overgrown path again. Soon after the charcoal hut we cross the second asphalt road, then we continue beside the pond. When we arrive at the swings, the nature trail continues left, descends to the Austrian well, continues for a short time on a longer bridge, then the still overgrown path semicircularly returns to the swings, from which we quickly return to our starting point and the end of the nature trail Štivanski log.
The described path is not maintained and is deteriorating.
The description and pictures refer to the condition in 2016 (November).

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips
