This cache is located at Kyparissi, Lakonias. On a trail going to the east of the gulf, to the small church of St. George.

Kyparissi is a very beautiful located and peaceful traditional village in the prefecture of Lakonias, on the east sea-side of Peloponnisos. Placed on a small gulf and surrounded by big mountains! You can access it by road, although the part that crosses the mountain above it is full of turns and little narrow but its asphalt! In addition is a very popular stop for motor and sail boats.

The cache is located on a trail surrounding the gulf, east of the village, towards the small church of St George located on the sea-side.
You can find the entrance of the trail near the below coordinates:
N36 58.222 E22 59.654

The trail is easy going, over the sea. About 400 meters before the small church the trails splits! The cache is located on the trail going over the church! But remember to visit the church after or before visiting the cache!
Remember to wear your swimsuit as well! If the weather is good tou will regret it if you dont! :)

In case you have a boat, you can dock on the small church! And go from there!

The cache is a Tupperware-style container.
It contains a logbook and a pen to log your visit.
A Geocaching declaration in English and Greek.
Also I put in there my first TB, the Happy Greek Bunny and a Danish Geocoin.
For trading there are some Asterix collectible stickers, toon hansaplasts!, a mini racecar and a Tom playing hockey toy!

Absolutely beautiful views, beautiful church, and a nice, long, but relatively easy hike. Thanks for this cache. I really enjoyed it! I took the Madagascar TB that has been here for a year and will move it along.

The cache was easily to find. Thanks to besk&svullo and lilla who described to take the upper way. It splittet 260m before the cache coordinates. The cache was in best condition, only the case was a little bit broken.
