Šahovec - Hunting lodge Vrhtrebnje (Baragova pot)

Access to starting point:
A) We leave the Ljubljana–Novo mesto highway at the Trebnje–west exit, then continue driving towards Žužemberk and Dobrnič. When we arrive in Dobrnič, we leave the main road, as at the crossroads by the church we continue straight and then at the inn Pr Lubčku turn left onto a somewhat narrower asphalt road. We then drive through the settlement Lokve pri Dobrniču to the village Šahovec, where at the crossroads in the middle of the village we continue left (by the crossroads there is a traffic mirror). From the crossroads, we drive a few hundred meters along the narrower asphalt road to a smaller pond by which we park in an appropriate place.
B) First, we drive to Žužemberk, then continue driving towards Trebnje and Dobrnič. When we arrive in Dobrnič, at the crossroads by the church we continue right and then immediately before the inn Pr Lubčku turn left onto a somewhat narrower asphalt road. We then drive through the settlement Lokve pri Dobrniču to the village Šahovec, where at the crossroads in the middle of the village we continue left (by the crossroads there is a traffic mirror). From the crossroads, we drive a few hundred meters along the narrower asphalt road to a smaller pond by which we park in an appropriate place.

Route description:
From the pond we go left and begin the path along the edge of the forest on a cart track, which passes into the forest. Baragova pot is initially quite easy to follow, as it runs along a cart track or forest track. A little higher we leave the cart track, as the signs for Baragova pot direct us onto a short section of the path where the trail is harder to follow and overgrown, but if we carefully follow the signs we will soon reach another cart track, along which we continue the moderate ascent. Further on, the cart track levels out even more and brings us out of the forest to the edge of the village Vrhtrebnje.
We reach the village near the church of St. Jakob, before which we continue right towards the landmark of the 15th meridian and the hunting lodge, to which we have only a minute's walk.
