Geocache Description:

Kozlov


     Kozlov lezi asi 1.5 km od obce Kozlany. Zde doporucujeme zacit odlov. Hrad Kozlov byl postaven roku 1310 na levem brehu reky Jihlavky. Diky terenu ma znacne protahly pudorys. Patril trebicskemu benediktynskemu klasteru a byl vybudovan jako ochranny hrad na hranici benediktynskeho panstvi. Kozlov byl jednim z mmoha hradu, ktery mel eliminovat tlak slechty, ktera se usidlila na pravem brehu reky. Tyto hradky predstavovali protivahu proti hradkum slechtickym umistenym na protejsim brehu. Vznikaji tak dvojice hradu stojici velmi blizko u sebe. Ke hradku Kozlov je to Holoubek stojici na protejsim brehu. Kozlov byl znicen za cesko - pruskych valek v polovine 15. stoleti - od roku 1490 se uvadi jiz jako pusty. Poslednimi majiteli byly Perstejnove.

K odlovu: dostat se na misto nebude mozna tak jednoduche. Podle stavu vody se cache nachazi na ostrove nebo polostrove. Pokud budete mit stesti a bude nizky stav vody, cesta vede pres skalnaty hreben porostly rasami. Opravdu klouze. Jeste predtim musite zdolat skalni rozsedlinu. Rozhodne nedoporucujeme odlov v zime (pokud nejste milovnici adrenalinu), s malymi detmi nebo na kole. Doufame, ze si pri odlovu uzijete hodne zabavy. Lovu zdar!

Chovejte se k prirode ohleduplne, cache je uschovana tak, aby nebylo nutne prekopavani terenu. Samotna cache je ulozena na pomerne bezpecnem miste.

Nezapomente si opsat bonusove cislo B!

This cache will lead you to the place where once the Kozlov castle stood.

You may find it about 1.5 km from the village of Kozlany. We recommend you begin your hunt here.

     The Kozlov castle was built in 1310 on the left bank of the Jihlávka river. Due to the complicated terrain its ground plan is very stretched. It belonged to a Benedictine monastery. It was built to protect the border of the Benedictine land against landed gentry that had settled on the right side of the river. Kozlov was one of the little castles which maintained a balance with gentry castles on the right bank. Due to this pressure several twin castles arise – one on the left side and one on the right side of the river. Kozlov was opposed by the Holoubek castle. The Kozlov castle was destroyed in the Czech-Prussian wars in the middle of the 15th century. Since 1490 it has been reported to be abandoned. The last owner of this castle was the house of Pernštejn.

Regarding the hunt: to get there may not be easy. It depends on how much water there is in the lake. The ruin of Kozlov stands on a penisula (if the water is low) but sometimes it becomes a little island. First you must get through a rocky gash. Then, if you are lucky, you may get to the castle along a rocky ridge. Be careful! It is slippery! If you are not lucky, you must swim (unless you have a helicopter). We do not recommend going there in winter, unless you love adrenalin sports, especially with small children or on the bike. We do hope you will enjoy it. Good hunting!

Please, save the nature! Cache is hidden so that you don’t need to dig and it is in a safe place.
