Geocache Description:


Dansk: (English below)

Denne cache ligger på et naturskønt sted med udsigt over Ringkøbing Fjord. Her er altid mange fugle.

Turen ud til cachen går ad en sti på toppen af et gammelt dige der beskytter de yderste marker mod at blive oversvømmet. Når du har fundet cachen, kan du fortsætte sydpå langs diget, indtil du er ud for sydenden af landsbyen, hvor en anden sti fører tilbage til landevejen. Turen tager ca. 20 minutter. Husk solbriller i klart vejr!

Du kan også besøge Skt. Mauritius kirke (også kaldet Velling Kirke). Det er en gammel kirke fra 1200-tallet med senere ombygninger. På sydsiden findes den nu tilmurede ”mandsport” – den er omgivet af mange spændende fabeldyr. I cachen ligger en lille brochure om kirken (må gerne blive liggende til de næste geocachere).

Cachen indeholder ved oprettelsen

· en måge
· en fisk
· en havsnegl
· en flaskepost

foruden logbog, kuglepen, FFC og den omtalte brochure.

God fornøjelse med Geocache Velling!

--------------------------------------------------------

English:

This cache is placed on a spot of fine natural beauty with a nice view over Ringkøbing Fjord. There are always many birds.

The short walk to the cache follows a path along the top of an old dike which protects the outermost fields from being flooded. When you have found the cache, you can continue South along the dike until you are on line with the Southern border of the village where another path will take you back to the road. The walk takes approximately 20 minutes. Don´t forget your sunglasses in clear weather!

You can also visit Sct. Mauritius Church (also known as Velling Church). This is an old church from the 13th century with later modifications. On the Southern wall you find the now sealed “men´s door” with a lot of fabulous animals. In the cache is placed a small folder about the church (in Danish; please leave it there for other geocachers).

The cache contains from the start

· a seagull
· a fish
· a seasnail
· a bottle message

as well as a log book, pencil, FFC and the brochure mentioned above.

Enjoy Geocache Velling!
