This cache has been archived.

safri: After many times replacing the cache it is now finally gone. I am very sad about this. But I hope that everybody who got here had the same magnificent views of the sea and much fun at this place.
Thanks for all your nice logs!

Geocache Description:

The cache is located in the area of Ménez-Ham, also called Meneham. It is part of the community of Kerlouan at the “coast of legends”.

Since you are here probably on holidays we didn’t want to make it too difficult. First search a house made of stone between very huge rocks. This is called: la maison au toit de pierre. It was part of a large system for defending the coast and was built in the 17th century on order of Louis XIV.

There you go to the coordinates given above and look for a number carved in stone. This is ABCD. Then you can find the cache using the following instruction:

North: 48° 39.B(C:2)(A+C)

West: 4° 22.DAB

It is only a short way! About 280 m!

If you like you can start by visiting CHAPELLE POL, continue to POINTE DE BEG POL (a lighthouse) and walk from there at the coast to Ménez-Ham. There are two beautiful ways: one directly at the beach and the other above along the dunes.
Please be careful not to be watched and hide the cache carefully again.

Have fun!

Note on cache maintenance: Since our youngest son is learning French as his first foreign language we are visiting France as often as possible (but only in holidays). We have a friend in Brittany (Plouescat, about 10km away), Madame Quitiver. She knows where our cache is hidden and would look for it, if necessary.
