Bukovec predstavuje v ramci Slovenskeho Rudohoria jeden z najlepsich rozhladovych bodov. Oblast bola po vycinani Tatarov v 13.stor. osidlovana vo velkej miere nemeckymi kolonizatormi. Svedci o tom mnozstvo nemecky sa tvariacich nazvov a oznaceni v blizkom i sirokom okoli. Cela vrcholova plosina zvazujuca sa do doliny Hnilca je odlesnena. Suvisi to s davnou polnohospodarskou cinnostou obyvatelov obce, ktorych upadajuce banictvo nedokazalo dalej uzivit a poda v dolinach bola prilis zamokrena. Vyslap po kesku Vas okrem sirokeho rozhladu na mnozstvo „najvyssich vrchov“ odmeni pocitom, ze ste zdolali najvyssi bod Hnileckych vrchov. Hodnota nadmorskej vysky na nom kulminuje pri cisle 1127 m.
Ak Vas zaujima ako spolu suvisia Hnilecke vrchy a Slovenske Rudohorie, tak vedzte, ze rozlahla oblast „Slovenske Rudohorie“ sa dalej cleni na samostatne celky (napr. Veporske, Stolicke ci Volovske vrchy) a tie sa potom delia na podcelky. Hnilecke vrchy su jednym zo siedmich podcelkov Volovskych vrchov :-)
A AKY JE TEDA VYHLAD?
Pokial Vas bude sprevadzat prijemne pocasie, tak sa v udoli riecky Hnilec ako na dlani ukaze dedina Svedlar. A nielen to – vysoko nad obec sa dviha masiv Zlateho stola (1322 m), na ktorom vraj kedysi obedoval kral Matej Korvin! Vedeli ste, ze Zlaty stol je najvyssi vrch celych rozlahlych Volovskych vrchov a sucasne najvychodnejsia slovenska tisictristovka? Karpatsky obluk sa do podobnej vysky potom dviha az za slovensko-polsko-ukrajinskym trojmedzim v Biescadskom narodnom parku.
Pri pohlade priblizne zapadnym smerom sa s urcitostou ukaze kralovna slovenskych hor – ospevovana Kralova hola (1948 m). Strom zeleny sa na jej vrchole nikdy nevyskytoval, ako by sa mohlo usudzovat z ludovej piesne. Uz skoro 50 rokov je vrchol zdobi iny strom, nie zivy, lez betonovy – „strom bielocerveny“. Aj Vam sa jej silueta z tohto smeru javi ako sopecny kuzel?
Dalej z luk zvazujucich sa k severozapadu je perfektny pohlad na tatransku hradbu (napr. Gerlachovský štít 2655 m :-) a co by kamenom dohodil nazerame do ulic Spisskej Novej Vsi s najvyssou kostolnou vezou u nas :-)
Ponad pas ihlicnatych lesov mozeme obdivovat oblast Galmusu s charakteristickou vyse tisicmetrovou stolovou horou Skala (1013 m). Oznacuje sa niekedy za najvyssiu horu celeho vapencoveho Galmusu, ktory sa mimochodom taktiez zaclenuje do Hnileckych vrchov. Skratka jednoznacne odporucam za peknych dni s dobrou viditelnostou.
PRISTUP
- Najpohodlnejsi pristup je z dediny Porac po modrej znacke. Cely vystup jednym smerom zaberie asi 90 minut. Ci uz po vylete alebo pred nim, urcite nevynechajte aj navstevu blizkej tradicionalky GC5AN43 na uzasnom Vysokom vrsku, prípadne je možné celodenný výlet spestrit aj o návštevu Šarkanovej diery , kde urcite tiež neobídete naprázdno.... Geovozidla mozete pripadne odparkovat aj v sedle nad Poracskou dolinou, pricom usetrite asi stvrthodinu.
- Druhou moznostou je kratsi, ale za to strmsi vystup z opacnej strany od Svedlara. Doporucujem hlavne dobre topanky, ktore Vas nenechaju v stichu napriklad v blate, ci pri strecholezectve. :-)
- Pokial mate 2 dni casu a chcete ich stravit uprostred nie velmi drsnej divociny, tak velmi dobrym tipom je prechod z Hnilcika (horaren Gretla) cez Bukovec do Krompach. Pre fajnsmekrov ozaj lahodka...
KDE HLADAT?
Suradnice Vas dovedu az skoro na samy vrch, k turistickemu smerovniku. Pri pozornom zahladeni sa na pripevnene tabulky urcite nebude problemom zistit par cisel:
- Rozdiel nadmorskej výšky oboch smerovníkov vo Švedlári je AB.
- Este si zaznacte male cislo CDEF v pravom dolnom rohu tabulky „Bukovec 1127m“ (pripadne pismena ignorujte).
- Strom najblizsie k Vam je: javor X=4, smrek X=5, borovica X=6 alebo buk X=7?
A teraz uz iba jednoduche pocty a finalka lezi na suradniciach:
N 48° 50,(F) (X/C) (A+D)
E 020° 43,(A+E) (X) (B-C)
Prosim Vas o starostlive utesnenie vsetkych obalov a o identicke ulozenie cache. Nepouzivat hrubu silu! Nadoba je urcena na vymenu mensich predmetov, ale neuvazeny kinderbordel sa netoleruje. Logbook obsahuje bonusove cislo, ktore sa Vam este niekedy moze hodit...
ENGLISH:
The cache is hidden on an interesting hill with remarkable view. In medieval especially the german settlers were populating this country and therefore a lot of names have a german origin. The current slovak name of hill is Bukovec (Beech hill) and represents the highest hill of Hnilec mountains with an altitude of 1127 m above sea level. And what of a view are we having in front of us? Southern you can see Zlaty stol hill (Golden table) where the hungarian king Matthias Corvinus is believed to have some lunch break. In addition Golden table is the most eastern situated over 1300 m peak in Slovakia. Underneath the forest, in the valley of the river Hnilec there is situated the village Svedlar. Next in the west there is one of the most majestic peaks of Slovakia called Kralova hola (King’s peak) in the Low Tatras mountains. From this place it looks like a volcano, isn’t it? Standing on the meadows on the Bukovec hill we have a beautiful look on the High Tatras barrier with Spisska Nova Ves town in the river Hornad basin. Some other unknown panoramas are offering all around. Just a note, I recommend to visit the hill and the cache during nice weather with good visibility.
The classic access to the cache is from the village Porac (blue marked trail) where you can park your geovehicle. Don’t forget to find the near hidden cache Porac. The trip to the Bukovec hill takes some 90 minutes upwards, but the ascent is very comfortable. Second possibility is to follow up the blue marking from the village Svedlar. The ascent is shorter but much more steeper. Adequate shoes are recommended in this case. For some trekkers I recommend the two-days trek across the Hnilec mountains from Hnilcik-Gretla (bus) via Bukovec to Krompachy (bus, train). Beautiful and wild nature without the crowds of tourists!
The difference between the elevations of both orientation spots in Svedlar is AB. Next, small number on the corner right bottom of table „Bukovec 1127m“ is CDEF (ignore some potential characters). Finally the nearest tree is: maple X=4, spruce X=5, pine X=6 or beech X=7?
The final coordinates are:
48°50,(F) (X/C) (A+D)
020°43,(A+E) (X) (B-C)
After finding, please carefully close all covering and make sure to put it on the place in the same way. Do not apply the brute force! The cache is intended for changing some small things but do not insert useless „kinder egg garbage“. On the front page of logbook there is a bonus number. In the near future it could come in useful to you...
