Geocache Description:

A tree in the middle of a highway? Not likely...

(Slovensko nižje spodaj)

The cache is in the middle of a highway connecting to a city ring, but if there are cars and artificial lights around you, you are at the wrong spot, way too deep in the hill. If there are chestnut trees, blueberries, mushrooms, birds and deer (with some luck), and afternoon fresh air seekers, that's more like it!

There are a couple of locations in the vicinity where geological drilling took place, and some mineral samples are still laying around in decaying wooden boxes. If you are interested in geology or just collecting interesting stones, take a look for example at N46° 05.684' E014° 27.663'. Initial cache contents holds/held a slate slice from there, along with some more conventional items.

There are several approaches possible. If you are into walks, a nice 4.5 km ridge trail leads from Toško Čelo, or take a 3.5 km walk from Glince. The shortest trail is about 900 m long (all distances are one way).

For access with buses of a city public transport, take a stop Šentvid (N46° 05.805' E014° 27.899') on line 1 direction Vižmarje (or if you miss it, the next stop is end-of-line anyway), or the end-of-line stop on line 7, direction Pržan. See: (visit link) (visit link)

The cache is a round 0.6 litre plastic container.

Zaklad se nahaja sredi avtoceste (priključek Gorenjskega kraka na mestni obroč), a če ste med avtomobili in pod cestnimi svetilkami, ste na napačnem mestu, globoko v hribu. Kostanji, borovnice, gobe, ptički, kakšen sprehajalec in z nekaj sreče kakšna srna, so pravo okolje tega skrivališca.

V bližini je več ostankov vzorcev iz geoloških vrtin, nekateri so le kupček gline, drugi so bolj zanimivi v razpadajočih lesenih zabojih - poglejte na primer na N46° 05.684' E014° 27.663'. V zakladu je (je bil) tudi vzorec skrilavca od tam.

Možnih dostopov je več. Če vam je do sprehajanja, vodi 4.5 km dolga grebenska pot od Toškega Čela. Nekaj bližja je 3.5 kilometrska pot od Glinc, najkrajši dostop (in najbolj strm) je slab kilometer iz Šentvida, na primer začenši nad bencinsko črpalko (vse razdalje le v eno smer).

Z avtobusom mestnega potniškega prometa številka 1 smer Vižmarje se lahko pripeljete do postaje Šentvid (N46° 05.805' E014° 27.899'), ali pa s sedmico do njene zadnje postaje Pržan. Več: (visit link) (visit link)

Zaklad je okrogla pollitrska posoda iz umetne snovi.
