Oštrc is an alpine-looking peak in the center of the Samobor Mountains. It is easily visible from afar and is recognizable by the steep slopes on both sides. The top is not covered by forest, but is characterized by large steep slopes, so it offers wide views. On the south side of the peak is the 15 m high Flinka rock, which serves as a mountaineering training ground. On the saddle under the peak is the railway mountaineering lodge.

View: From the top, you can see Rudarska draga and Plešivica, and in the distance Zagreb and Medvednica
Coordinates: N 45° 45' 41.4'' E 15° 38' 57.8''
Stamp: The highest point of the peak is in the forest, and the metal stamp is located next to the memorial plaque to the first HPD excursion in 1875 (30 m from the peak), on a rock from which a beautiful view opens towards Rude and Plešivica
Access:
Rude – pl. Ivica Sudnik lodge (Veliki dol) – railway lodge – Oštrc 1.30 h
Samobor – Palačnik – Ivica Sudnik lodge – railway lodge – Oštrc 3 h
Smerovišće – Ivica Sudnik lodge – railway lodge – Oštrc 1.30 h
Rude – railway lodge – Oštrc 1.30 h
Poljanice – Prekrižje – Rancerje – railway lodge – Oštrc 1.30 h
Mali Lipovec (or Japetić) – Velika vrata – Stražnik – railway lodge – Oštrc 2.10 h

Oštrc is very popular among hikers and is very accessible. Of the dozen or so possible approaches, the shortest (but also the steepest) are the routes from Braslovje and from Rude, while the slightly gentler climbs from Smerovišće and from Šoićeva kuca are The approaches from both Samobor passes, Poljanice and Veliki Vrata, are also marked, so a visit to Oštrac can easily be combined with a visit to Plešivica or Japetić.
