Boyana Church Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Pospalan: I have to archive it, because it was too long disabled. It is nice to have cache nearby. If somebody does not hide a new one, I hope someday to find a day or to for a better one.

Geocache Description:

The Boyana Churh is more than 1000 years old and is an amazing place for a short visit in the City of Sofia.

The coordinates are not the cache itself, but the Church main gate. If you continue inside the garden along an alley, you will reach a sign with information about the Boyana Church history.It has clues that will help you find the cache real coordinates. The first 2 years are A & B. When you have these you can calculate X=A-728, Y=B-1011 , then replace (Degrees and Minutes):
N 42 38.X
E 23 15.Y

The cache is not hidden inside the garden or the wall arround it, because it can be found by accident.The cache is in the forest nearby, close to the trails to Boyana Lake and Boyana Falls.So if you are equiped for hiking and you have 3-4 hours , you can visit Boyana Falls and find the Vitosha Cache by nord_wolf.

Warning : The GPS accuracy in the forest is about 8-10 meters. Use the hint and Good Luck :)
