The stage departure is located near the SMO (Slovensko Multimedialno Okno) from which you reach the church of San Pietro Apostolo and Via dei Klancic, leading towards Clenia/Klenje. Shortly after the first hairpin bend, from a dirt clearing starts trail CAI 749 which leads to Mount Matajur through pleasant wooded areas and villages with intact local traditional architecture and ethnographic museums. Upon reaching Mezzana/Mečana, continue on the same trail towards Glevizza/Hlevišča and Montemaggiore/Matajur, the real starting point of the ascent to the summit where you can enjoy a splendid view from the small church located there. From here, finally, you descend along trail CAI 736 down to Pelizzo Refuge.
