Kavouri hill Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

erik88l-r: As there's been no cache to find for months, and no response to the previous note, I'm archiving it to keep the listing from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the next 30 days, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

The cache is placed on the top of a hill in the southern part of Athens, between the suburbs of Voula, Vouliagmeni and Varkiza. The hike is around the hill and has very good views of the three areas.

The cache is located on the top of a hill near the areas mentioned above. There are actually a lot of hills in the southern part of Attica, and most are covered by bushes or are completelly dry. There is a small wooden watchtower on top of the hill, probably for the fire department, but I have never seen someone in the area.

To get there, you can drive from N37o49.979', E23o46.957'and park your car wherever you can find around the area near where the asphalt stops. From there on it should take you around 20 minutes to get to the cache easily. Actually the road continues on to the cache, but is a bit rough, so if you have a 4x4 you can easily get there by car. Just follow the road and the direction the GPS shows you and you should get there in no time. I actually ride by bike there, but is a bit challenging if don't take it easy.

The cache is located near the wooden watchtower, and your GPS shouldn't have trouble locking at least 8 satellites, since it is a hill and the skyline is completelly clear. Look around the area where your GPS shows and you should be able to find it easily.
