Geocache Description:

Tradicni cache s dobrovolnou podminkou / Traditional cache with optional request

CZ:  Tato cache vás privede na konec cesty pro peší vedoucí od Budejovické brány smerem k nádraží. Této ceste se ríká Serpentina (nemecky puvodne také vedle "Serpentinenweg" také "Schneckenweg"). Zde, na konci Serpentiny, stojí hribovitý prístrešek, oznacovaný "Paraplícko" (nem."Parapluie"), úredne však nemecky poté pojmenovaný "Lina Ruhe". Prístrešek tu dal prý postavit stavitel železnice Schön v roce 1881 pro svou ženu Karolinu (proto Lina Ruhe), cesky je místo nekdy oznacované také jako "vyhlídka Pod paraplíckem".

Cestou po Serpentine k Paraplicku minete pozustatky 'jezdicich schodu', ktere vedly k hotelu Vysehrad, ktery byval povazovan za luxusni hotel. Dnes zde najdete pouze jeho ruinu.

Úkol spojený s cache:
K logu pripojte vase foto (ci foto vasi GPS) spolu s paraplickem a nebo s vyhledem na C.Krumlov od paraplicka
Cache s dobrovolným úkolem se rídí pravidly pro logování platnými od 4.4.2009.

K uloveni cache neni treba nic nikam strkat, nic nikde rozebirat, nic neni treba odhrnovat, odendavat atp. - proto takove veci, prosime, v okoli cache nedelejte. Radeji uzijte hintu a kochejte se hezkym mistem :).
V žádném prípade neparkujte v zatácce prímo u Paraplícka, pekné místo k zaparkování je velmi blízko, viz waypoint.

EN:  This cache will lead you to end of a narrow, steep path leading from Budejovicka gate. This path is called Serpentina (original German name has been "Serpentinenweg" and also "Schneckenweg"). Here, at the end of Serpentina, stands mushroom-shaped shelter named "Paraplícko" (in German "Parapluie" / Little umbrella). Officially was the place called in German "Lina Ruhe" (Rest for Lina). Shelter has been build by Mr.Schön (railway builder) in 1881. He build it for his wife Karolina (Lina is shortened name Karolina - therefore Lina Ruhe). In Czech is this placed called also as "View under the little umbrella".

On the path Serpentina toward Paraplicko you will see rest of escalator, which originaly lead to hotel Vysehrad, which is now in ruins.
