Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Maribor take the exit Žalec, and then continue driving towards Velenje. Still before Velenje, leave the main road, because signs for Vinska Gora point us to the right on a local road, and already after a few meters it brings us to the next crossroad. Here we continue left in the direction of the church of St. John the Baptist, and we follow the ascending road to the parking lot by the already mentioned church.
Route description:
From the parking lot at the church, we continue on the asphalt road and at the crossroad, we continue left. After a few tens of meters, blazes point us to the left upwards on a narrower road. Later, the road slightly descends, and then we soon continue right into the forest. Next follows traversing on a narrow footpath through the forest, which quickly brings us to a crossing below Gonžarjeva peč. Right leads a very demanding climbing path, and we continue left and for a short time, we still cross a slope towards the west. We are soon at the crossing again and this time we continue right upwards.
The path then starts ascending and the slope is becoming increasingly steep. Follows only the last ascent to the vantage point, where from the right side the climbing path joins. In the last part, the path is also secured with a fence.
From the vantage point, we continue through the forest by the fence upwards. After a short ascent, we come out of the forest on pastures from where a view opens up on Radojč and neighbouring Ramšakov vrh. From the pastures, the path brings us on the road on which we continue right to the farm Gonžar.
At the crossroad at the farm, we continue left on the macadam road and we are quickly again at the crossing. Right leads the Šaleška mountain trail, and we still continue on the road. At the next crossroad, we continue slightly left and the path brings us to one more mountain farm. Here the path turns sharply right and starts ascending through the forest. Later, the path joins the cart track which brings us to a clearing.
Here the path turns right and again starts ascending a little steeper. We soon come on a forested ridge where we continue right and only a shorter ascent to the top of Radojč follows.
From the top, we continue on the ridge and start descending a little. The path brings us to a crossing on the northern side of the ridge, where we continue right upwards towards the ridge. On the ridge, we then continue left and after a few shorter ascents and descents we reach Ramšakov vrh.

Very nice path, caution required across Gonžarjevo peč otherwise the path is suitable for all ages. Markings along the path are clearly visible. From Ramšakov vrh the path goes towards the hunting hut and a little before the hut we turn slightly right and follow the stream bed arriving almost at the start of the path, nice circular route.
