V Mokronogu in okolici najdemo kar nekaj zanimivih stvari. Nekaj ste jih lahko videli pri Sprehodu v Mokronogu in okolici, danes pa vas bo pot vodila do lepo urejenega soda nad Mokronogom, ki ga je Društvo vinogradnikov Mokronog postavilo na Smetovščah (nad Mokronogom). Sod drži 5475 litrov in vas pozdravi, tik preden pridete v Mokronog iz smeri Zbur. Postavili so ga zato, da obiskovalce opozori, da prihajajo v kraj, kjer je doma dobra kapljica.
There are quite a few interesting things to find in Mokronog and its surroundings. You could see some of them during the Walk in Mokronog and its surroundings, but today the path will lead you to a beautifully arranged barrel above Mokronog, which was set up the Mokronog Winegrowers' Association in Smetovšče (above Mokronog). The barrel holds 5475 liters and greets you just before you arrive in Mokronog from the direction of Zbure. It was set up to warn visitors that they are coming to a place where there is a good drop at home.
Sod je bil izdelan že davnega leta 1979 in bil v uporabi do leta 2000. Društvo ga je odkupilo in porabilo veliko število ur, da so ga obnovili. Na tem mestu pa bo stal, dokler bo Društvo v Mokronogu obstajalo.
The barrel was made as far back as 1979 and was in use until 2000. The society bought it and spent a large number of hours to restore it. It will stand in this position for as long as the Society in Mokronog exists.
V društvu je včlanjenih okoli 110 članov, pridelajo pa okoli 500 do 1000 litrov vina (predvsem cvička). Blizu soda vidimo tudi kažipot, ki nas popelje do različnih bližnjih vasi, prav tako si lahko odpočijemo na lično urejenih klopeh, preko ceste pa vas bo budno spremljal tudi Jezus s križa.
The society has about 110 members and produces about 500 to 1000 liters of wine (mainly cviček). Near the barrel we also see a signpost that takes us to various nearby villages, we can also relax on nicely decorated benches, and across the road you will be accompanied by Jesus from the cross.
Dostop je možen tudi z vozički, a se bo potrebno malo stegniti, da ga dosežete. Je pa zraven takoj parkirišče in ravnina.
Access is also possible with wheelchairs, but it will take a little stretching to reach it. There is a parking lot and a plane next to it.
Vabljeni. You're welcome.
Najmlajši si lahko nekaj izberete (ni potrebna zamenjava), malo starejši pa lahko zamenjate.
