This is the third one of the windmills group I would like to introduce to you. I’ve made up my own group. Of course I’m not the first who had the same idea, that’s why I’ve already asked for author agreement.
The author, who gave many years for this hobby, he agreed with using of all this information.
You can find the results of his diligent work at: Povetrnik

You will need it for bonus cache.
The size of the cache is 15x10x5 cm.
Please, save the cache properly !!!
I would recommend you to visit the windmill museum which contains outstanding display!!
HOW TO FIND THE CACHE:
On starting coordinates you will find information board with green zone on its bottom.
Find heraldry with deer in this green zone.
There is a telephone number in the form A B C (A consist from first 3 digits, etc...)
Note. Write down B and C !!! You will need it for final!!
Coordinates for Stage 1:
N = 49° 19.U
E = 16° 43.V
Where:
U = A+B-3
V = B-40
On Stage 1 you will find yellow sign with number in the form Q R S T
The cache you will find on coordinates:
N = 49° 19.X
E = 16° 43.Y
Where:
X = A+C+Q*T-T-R-S-83
Y = B-C-Q*T+Q+S+206
The distance from the Start point to the Final is approximately 800 meters.
