[ENG]Cache name in English is Lights on for Latvia! It is located between Stende and Irbe rivers, in territory with almost not changed landscape. Cache placed on November 18, 90th anniversary since proclamation of Latvia.


[LAT] Slepnis atrodas dabas rezervata "Ances purvi un meži" teritorijaa. Isuma, nedrikstat celt teltis, kurinat ugunskurus, drikst parvietoties tikai pa esošajiem celiem.

Slepnim vislabak pieklut kajam vai ar velo, tacu var nakties dalu cela to stumt, jo kapas ir loti smilšanas. Auto neiesaku, var sanakt iegrimt smiltis par ar džipu, turkat apkart upes, tuvuma tiltu nav. Tuvaka apdzivota vieta ir talak kaa 5 km no slepna. Celu ir daudz, tacu tajos viegli apmaldities. Pilnigi iespejams, ka izdosies satikt meža zverus (stirnas, mežacukas).


[ENG] This territory is part of nature reserve "Ances purvi un mezi". In short, you are not allowed to camp or make fire in places not designated for it. You are allowed to use forest roads.

Cache is hardly accessible by car, you can easily get stuck where roads goes over sandy dunes even if you have SUV. I recommend hiking or using bike, but be ready to hike-a-bike where roads goes sandy. Be also aware that cache is around 5km from nearest house, roads there are a lot, but its easy to get lost :) Be prepared to encounter wild animals like white tail deer, elk, foxes, bevers, wild boars e.c.
