Your way to the cache on the Massingsattel isn't boring at all.
There are lots of things to see; a stream, an Alpine hut, a forest,
a little swamp, and nice views of the surrounding mountains. Enjoy
your search.
This cache was placed by Team Tour de Austria to release the travel
bug "Sharona"
(TB9A4C).
The hike will take about 1.5 to 2 hours.
Park your car in the village of Hinterthal and walk to the starting

doors has the building?

On the bench you can enjoy the view, it's very quiet and relaxed.
Behind the bench you see the edge of the forest, there you will
find a big tree with red/white stripes (indication hiking route). I
which orientation are the stripes painted?

E 12° 57.202

This is the final location where the cache is hidden. Please beware
of the very wet area (swamp) between the trail and the location of
the cache. You need to walk around the swamp a bit. Happy
hunting!
