The Seeberg highway (B 82) runs from the Austrian side through the scenic village of Bad Eisenkappel (Slovene: Železna Kapla) up to the border crossing Seebergsattel. Nine kilometres after Bad Eisenkappel, a road to Paulitschsattel bears left off the B 82. A short descent is followed by a very steep 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) climb and then 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) of undulating road to the pass and border crossing.[1] On the Slovenian side, the ascent starts at the beginning of the scenic Logar Valley and is 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) long.
