Greatland Reviewer: Γειά σας.

Αυτή η ιστοσελίδα έχει αρχειοθετηθεί λόγω έλλειψης αντίδρασης, μετά από μυνήματα που στάλθηκαν σχετικά με προβλήματα στην κρύπτη. Αν επιθυμεί ο ιδιοκτήτης, την επαναενεργοποίηση της, μπορεί να έλθει σε επαφή μαζι μου μέσω του profile μου, το συντομότερο δυνατό ,πριν μια νέα κρύπτη τοποθετηθεί στην περιοχή της.

Σημειώστε οτι η επαναενεργοποίηση μιάς κρύπτης απαιτεί την ίδια διαδικασία με τον έλεγχο νέας κρύπτης και θα ισχύουν οι τρέχοντες κανόνες.

Με εκτίμηση,

Geocache Description:

A cache near the beach Tripiti south of Crete.

Tripiti (or Trypiti) is located 73km south of Heraklion and 12km east of Lendas, in a small plain at the exit of the gorge of Tripiti (not the homonym gorge of Sfakia area). The name is taken after the church of Panagia Tripiti, which is built inside a cave at the base of the canyon.
To get there, there are two alternative routes, both on dirt tracks. The first route is through a rough dirt road that starts near Lendas harbor, 6km long, and heads eastern to Krotos village. On the 2nd kilometer of the dirt road, you will find a cross junction, where you should turn right. The road crosses the Cape Trafoulas and reaches Tripiti after much dust and car-trembling, but also views of the genuine wild Cretan countryside.
The second alternative is to drive 9km from the village of Vassiliki in Messara plain, where you arrive through the village of Agii Deka. The good dirt road crosses the wild Asterousia Mountains and passes through the gorge of Trypiti, with its beautiful karstic formations. Moreover, at a point close the beach, the canyon becomes very narrow and fits only one car. This point, with the high walls about to "kiss" each other above your head, is really amazing and worth visiting, even if you follow the first route.
The beach is protected on the west by the Cape Fylakas (i.e. Guardian), on which there are several cavities.
The cache is somewhere there.
