Geocache Description:


This "secondary cache" can only be found with international team-working because:

This cache is just one cache of a set of 30 caches named European IMC No.1 (IMC stands for International Multi Cache).These caches are hidden in following (15) European countries:
Austria (A), Belgium (B), Denmark (DK), Finland (FIN), France (F), Germany (D), Great Britain (GB), Hungary (H), Ireland (IRL), Italy (I), Luxembourg (L), Netherlands (NL), Portugal (P), Spain (E) and Sweden (S).
In each country there is a primary cache and a secondary cache.

The (15) primary caches are named: European IMC No.1 P-X-Yyy and the (15) secondary caches are named: European IMC No.1 S-X-Zzz where x is the country code given above and Yyy and Zzz can be any additional name.
The primary caches are almost like traditional caches. The only difference is that they contain beside the “normal” content (stash-note, logbook, pencil, give-aways) a list of hint for the secondary caches.

To be able to search and find a secondary cache you need all hints from all primary caches! 

As the primary caches are scattered all over Europe it will either require a lot of travelling or - and that is the intention of the European IMC No.1 – international cooperation.
If you want to find this secondary cache, you should:

1. Find a primary European IMC No. 1 cache.
2. Contact finders of other primary European IMC No. 1 caches and exchange the hints.
3. Puzzle the hints together and …
4. … go and seek the secondary cache.

The European IMC No. 1 team wish you good luck!

This secondary cache is located near the beautiful little town of Esch-sur-Sûre with its medieval castle, situated in a loop of the river Sûre/Sauer that you know already from the primary cache at Bourscheid castle.

The coordinates lead you to a parking place near the river and the castle.

The cache itself is NOT to be found at the above given coordinates.

You will find the PARKING COORDINATES FOR THE CACHE in the collected list of hints.

The cache is hidden near the water reservoir of the river Sûre. The water in this  reservoir serves for power generation, the reservoir collects the drinking water for nearly one half of the population of Luxembourg and regulates the water outlet in times of heavy rains.

This cache is of interest of all European Geocachers. Please, log in English too.
