Geocache Description:

The first and oldest Multi-Cache in Romania! Take your backpack and take about 1.5 hours in beautiful scenery.

+++ CACHE DESCRIPTION +++

At first go the Coordinates as given: N46 33.269, E023 41.629. There You will find a steel construction (balise). Count the amount of its basement points. This number is A.

Then go to : N 46 33.77A, E 023 A1.A50. Look around and find a house with tower. There is a big touristic map on the wall - you can read it also from distance. Below the map you will find 9 trail signs. How many different colours do they have? This amount is B. => Calculate C = 3-B.

Now you can go to N 46 3A.C55, E C23 AC.2A5. - Have fun!

No worries about loosing the GPS coverage - this is just temporary and at the right time of Your walk through this canyon You will get perfect coverage back.

Attn: When visiting the Cheille Turzii Canyon You may be charged the entrance fee which is about 4RON per adult. Do not leave the official path - do not cross the river near to the cache - use the bridge, located near to the rear valley entrance!

+++ update 26th December 2018 +++ Since the main entrance has been transferred to a private property I had to adjust WP2 a little bit. Now its working also without entering the "private area".

+++ update 19th June 2018 +++ since leaving the offical path is not allowed and checked by local guardian - please do not cross the river while in nature park! - Only cross the river at the bridge, close to the rear entrance of the valley! You can find the cache also on this way. I have updated description!

+++ update 28th July 2013 +++ After 10 years there were some changes at location 2 - so I updated the calculation at this point.

The ABC-calculation is easy by intention, since there are frequent changes on location 2...

Original content: Small plastic-box with original content of: a red pen, log book, geocache information, key chain, small bear, sticker from Germany, Little game made of wood, a cube and piece of electronics.
