Geocache Description:

Acherontas (Acheron) is a river of Epirus that is crossing Thesprotia and Preveza about 50km and ends into the Ionian Sea.

In mythology we find the Acheron Valley as the place where the dead people was living. Acheron being the road where Charon was leading the souls to the Acherousia More info about Acherontas River you can find here: In Greek http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%91%CF%87%CE%AD%CF%81%CF%89%CE%BD In English http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acheron In order to go to the cache, you can park your car a bit earlier as the road gets narrow and gravel. At the end of the road you can either follow the path on the left or choose to walk through the tunel and then walk on the path (be carefull as the path after the tunel has no safety rails). The cache is a small plastic container, which has a logbook, a pencil and a first to find pin in it (as a gift to the first one to find the cache). .............................................................................................................
