Geocache Description:

Cache is hidden in Hungary near Csor village by national highway 8. Take the exit for the driveway at the east side of Csór. Find the gravel road at N47 12.549 E18 16.538 and drive northwest to Leányvágó. Follow the red stripe tourist signs to the west. You will descent to Száraz horog (a dry valley) with nice cliffs. Cache is hidden at a tree about 10 m from the red stripe marked path on the western side of the valley.

Csór: Csór village has 1400 inhabitants. Its west of Székesfehérvár city on national highway 8. Hooks (Horog):
The area to the north of line marked with Csor and Inota villages line is a hill-range and part of Eastern Bakony mountains. There are several hiking places, which are probably undeservedly forgotten.
From the east Iszkaszentgyörgy, from the north Bakonykuti, Guttamasi, and Kincsesbanya limits the range.
The highest point on the west is Baglyas-mount (363m). (You can find the ending points of GCHB7D / GCVp here). 363m height is probably not too high, but the steep rocky sides are tricky. There is a wide plateau to the east of Baglyas. There are plenty of dry valleys running to the south, which are called HOOKS (horog): Sár-horog (Mud-hook), Túró-horog (Cheese-hook), Száraz-horog (Dry-hook), and our place Szenes-horog (Coaly-hook). The latter is marked by a kilometre long CLIFF RANGE!
These valleys (hooks) are woody unlike the plateau, which have meadows.

We have spent great picnics here. Some of our friends prefer staying in the fields, while most of the guys like to climb the cliffs and enjoy the view of the valley and Sárrét region (mudmeadows) in the distance.
