Garbary Forest Traditional Cache

[ENG] The cache is in plastic box with a logbook, pen, pencil and small items for trading.

[ENG] The Cache is located in Garbary Forest near by Ludza town boundaries. Ludza is a typical Latgale small town in the east of the region, 248 km from Riga. It is located at a beautiful, hilly site encircled by five lakes (Mazais Ludza Lake, Lielais Ludza Lake, Dunakla Lake, Zvirgzdenes Lake And Runtortas Lake), and preserves memories of ancient, glorious times when significant Latgalian settlements stood here and a lively trading road wound its way through the Latgale Highland. Through the centuries Ludza has been ruled by Germans, Poles, Russians and Belorussians, so its name has at various times been recorded as Ludsen, Ludzen, Lutsen, Lucin and Lucin. Today`s `Ludza` was bestowed during Latvian independence in 1920. About Ludza.
