Geocache Description:


Cache located in a path that connects “Platanakia” with Chortiatis village and in his bigger part you move on a stone water canal, that it is part of Thessaloniki’s old aqueduct, that was manufactured in 1916-17 from French Army of East, Service of Waters (Armie Francaise d Orient, Service des Eaux) and remains in very good condition.

It is a very beautiful path, unknown in a lot of people.
You can park your car at coordinates (N 40 35.727  E 023 03.181). A few meters below (N 40 35.758 E 023 03.172) begins the path.
 In the beginning, the path climbs steeply for 10 minutes until you meet the stone water canal.
Turn right following continuity the stone water canal and the orange marks, until you easy reach in about a half an hour a tunnel, a waterfall and the cache!!!

Be very careful to the final approach to the cache, because requires about 3 meters climb on the rocks.
For this reason I put the rate 3,5.

The cache is a tupperware wrapped in a plastic ziplog bag. It contains a logbook, a declaration En+Gr, a pencil (bring your own just in case) and some trades.

Please rehide the cache carefully.

I wish you good and pleasent geocaching.
