You can find this little box in a stone-split of famous Devil-gnawed Rock (height: 263 m) is near Veszprém City (4 kms as the crow flies).
The Devil-gnawed Rock is a little cliff (12 m relative height) in the Tekeres-valley of the Veszprém dolomite table-land.
You will be careful when you climb up to peak because of steap rocks. You have to watch over the children!
The name of this cliff (Ördög-rágta Kő) was mentioned firstly in a document during Y1200s as the characteristic point of borderline of landed properties of Veszpém City.
It is a popular tourist spot along the red stripe signed tourist path now.
The proposed parking place is near the Veszprém south bypass highway when you turn to a minor scart road: N47° 5,723’ E17° 52,458’ 220 m.
You go along scart roads on the grassy table-land and you arrive in the forest at N47° 5,735’ E17° 52,153’.
You cross the forest and you walk to reach the point N47° 5,797’ E17° 51,751’ . Then you turn right and you go on the upper edge of Tekeres-valley (head towards to reach the hiding place). You will protect the feather-grass (Stipa pulcherrima) covered slopes.
You go (or climb) up to the top of Devil-gnawed Rock and you stop at the western verge of the little plateau. You turn to the west thereafter look downwards. The cache will be 3 metres under your feet at the stem of a little bird-cherry tree.
You have to be very careful on these dangerous rocks!
