Rabat in one day Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Knagur Green: Due to no response from the CO after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported. Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

If the CO feels that this cache has been archived in error please feel free to contact me via email quoting the GC number concerned

Thank you for understanding

Geocache Description:

First cache in Rabat to discover four nice locations of the city. Takes appr. 2-3 hours. Overall distance 7-8 km. Only accessible from 8-18h. Small coins needed.

Bienvenue and welcome to the first Geocache in Rabat, the Capitol of Morocco. This Cache was buildt with the idea to increase the number of Caches in Morocco as there are just few. It starts in the old city center and takes you to three further locations in walking distance (overall trip almost 10 km) For the trip to the last station a taxi is recommended but not necessary. For the last station 10 dH entrance fee are needed. Please respect local people and cultural heritage sites.

We hope you have fun :-)
Good luck!

Station 1:

The start is in the city's core
And hearts are what you're looking for.
Find them at a nearby door to the town
Watch out for its number and write it down.
Variable A is what you get
Be prepared for the next set

Next station is at N34°01.(83*A)' W006°50.(9*A-2)

Station 2:

Did you reach that outlying place?
Lets start the next part of this race!
Just relax and have a drink
Its wonderful, what do you think?
Then search the pillars and in between
A lot of squares can easily be seen
Just some of them are facing "nord-est"
Counting them would be the best
Variable B is what you get
Be prepared for the next set

Next station is at N34°01.(6*B+30)' W006°49.(6*B-16)

Station 3:

You should walk right next to the pier
Its nice and new, maybe some year
Then you'll reach that open space
Its spirit is royal, you'll love that place!
From the point you are: just walk straight on
Towards the building whose head is gone
You'll pass those funny stony rows
Count them and the answer glows
Variable C is what you get
Be prepared for the next set

C-13=X
Next station is at N34°00.XXX' W006°49.(40*C+24)

Maybe you want to take a taxi now as the walk takes about half an hour. If walking go directly direction south as the streets are more calm and you will go through the nice embassador quartier. The next cache is inside the monument you are heading, you have to enter through the entrance first.

Station 4:

Congratulation you've almost done
We hope you had a lot of fun
The birds are watching over that place
To the end of it guides you the trace
Will you be able to discover the treasure?
We hope you do - your fun is our pleasure!
We hope you had a very nice day!
We wish you good luck on your further way!
