Geocache Description:


If you visit the basin of Pivka and take a walk around, you will see a lot of stone crosses on different places, like in the middle of the field, at the crossings or in the middle of the village.

According to their placement we can figured out what they are standing for. On crossings as an orientation mark, in the village for solemn or as a plague spot. Sometimes are standing there as a penance for the crime that has been done.

They date in different time of Pivka’s history, most between 18th and 19th century. Stone crosses also represent stonecutting craft typical for this part of Slovenia with a lot of limestone.

Cache is placed not far from the stone cross on the Petelinje’s field crossing. The best way to approach the cache is from the end of village Petelinje (suburb of Pivka) You can park at N 45° 41.491' E 014° 12.066 and take the unpaved road on the right.
