Welcome to the Snail Trails, GEO-ART in the area of Sabile and Abava valley! Why snail? Because Sabile has vineyard that is full of winesnails, also known as escargots. On top of that, winesnail is depicted in the coat of arms of Abava parish. And snail just looks good on the map! 🐌
Take your time, no rush, and enjoy geocaching!
A rare garden snail with an anticlockwise shell - a "lefty" - was discovered in London in 2016. This mutation is extremely rare, believed to only occur once in a million individuals. Sadly for snail itself - he can only mate with another unique lefty. Righties and lefties can't get it on because their genitals are in the wrong place... The snail became famous worldwide after a public appeal to find other left-coiled snails for a mate. What was the name of this famous left-coiled snail?
