In a botanical garden. 15 min walk from parking place along easy but moderately steep path. 270 m altitude.

This botanical garden hosts many of the trees and plants from norwegian flora in a quite small space. The garden is on a ledge in the steep cliff above the fjord. The rock wall behind the garden gives an "oven effect" and it gets quite hot there on nice summer days. The garden was earlier used for growing fruit trees as an extra income for the local farms. The path down to the garden was built for the purpose of transporting fruit by horse.

If you park at Sagedammen (SP) you have easy access to other attractions along the "Cultural Trail" in connection with the Sagedammen area. See information at the parking place. Parking fee.
If you park at the secondary parking place (AP) the walk to the cache is shorter and easier.

The cache is a small plastic box wrapped in a dark plastic bag.
Initial content:
Logbook, pencil, sharpener
GC Disclaimer
Balloons
Carving Bit
IDE Computer Cable
1 Finnish Mark

Remember to close the entrance gate to the garden to prevent deer from eating the plants. Next to the entrance there is an ordinary guestbook and descriptions of the plants.
