Geocache Description:

Sveti Vid, the highest mountain on PAG Island


[EN] First Cache on Pag is located in the special place - mountain Sv.Vid, the highest mountain on Pag - 349m. From the top of this mountain you can see arroung the Pag island. For example the sight on Velebit mountains and Paški Vrata:
There are two ways to the hill. Terrain rating is due the complicated one.
First way, the longer one (3,5km - 1h15min), but easiest (terrain 3) is from Simuni camp (REF1). Parking on the second side of the road, near the camp. Way is very good marked by red/white signs, but the way is very rocky and thorny, dont forget good shoes.
Second way, the shorter one (900m - 45min), but more difficult (terrain 4,5) is from village Sv.Marija (REF2). Sv.Maria is simple reachable by car on road from Pag, parking next the reference point. Then you start walk/climb part of the trip up to the hill. Way is very good marked (with red/white signs) but rocky and not suitable for kids. No special equipment is necessary. Attention: it is really mountain and rocky way, maybe dangerous, maybe snakes, dont forget good shoes. Be aware of strong wind (Bura). Second way I climbed with 9-year old boy today with the timing 45min + 50min.

Cache (2 liter) is situated cca 2m from the long wall with direction to PAG village.

[CZ] Prvni cache na ostrove PAG je umistena na vrcholku hory Sveti Vid (349 m.n.m.). Z nejvyssiho mista hory je uzasny rozhled na cely PAG, okolni ostrovy a pevninsky Velebit.
Na misto se muzete dostat dvema cestami.
Prvni cesta je delsi(3,5km - 1h 15min), ale je celkem pohodova (obtiznost terénu 3) a vede ze Simuni, primo nad kempem je uvodni cedule zahjujici vylet (REF1). Parkovat lze u kempu Simuni, pokud bude volno. Cesta je trnita a kamenita, nezapomente na dobre boty.
Druha cesta je kratsi (900m - 45min), ale je vyrazne narocnejsi (obtiznost terénu 4,5) a zacina v osade Sv.Marija (REF2). Tam se dostanete snadno autem z Pagu (Bošana, Sv.Marija). Pak je treba odbocit pesky do kopce dle ukazatele Sv.Vid. Cesta je celou dobu dobre znacena (cerveno bile kruhy a pruhy), zvladli jsme ji s 9 letym synem v uvedenem case 45 min tam a 50 min dolu. Zadne specialni vybaveni neni potreba. Pozor: presto to jsou skaly, ostre kameny, nebezpecny teren... Nezapomente na vhodnou obuv! Neni vhodne pro deti. Pozor na vítr.
Během asi 6 návštěv jsem během jedné cesty spatřil hada, podle domorodců nebezpečného. Bacha na ně. Kes (2litry) je situovana nahore, cca 2m od dlouhe kamenne zdi vedouci smerem k vesnici PAG. Signal byl excelentni.
