Geocache Description:

Grønhøj strand er en af Danmarks bedste badestrande og har det blå flag, der er lavvandet et godt stykke ud med lækker blød sandbund. Stranden er meget bred og jævn og er derfor her et meget yndet sted for kite buggies ( (visit link) ) netop fordi den er så bred her, det er muligt at køre i bil fra Løkken til Blokhus, hvor man ca. midtvejs passerer Grønhøj.
Der er mange kuperede klitter, hvor det er muligt at finde en gryde hvor der er læ til at solbade.

Sidst på eftermiddagen er der mulighed for at købe friskfanget fisk fra fiskehandlernes bil som kører ned på stranden. De kan jo så tilberedes på grillen på stranden, inden man til sidst nyder den fantastiske solnedgang, hvor man kan være heldig at se marsvin tæt ved kysten.

Ved nedkørslen til stranden forefindes toilet og kiosk. Ved siden af kiosken er der en gammel bunker, hvor der ind imellem er skiftende kunstudstillinger.
Godt hundrede meter fra Ilbæk – bækken nede af stranden findes der en kilde, der sender sprudlende rent ferskvand op midt på stranden.
En rigtig god legeplads for børn og voksne, der synes, at det er sjovt at bygge kanaler, dæmninger og havne på stranden hvor vandet bliver ved med at vælde op.
Her har vores egen søn ØRKEN-BANANEN brugt rigtig mange timer sammen med sine venner med at grave og bygge sandslotte, fordi vi er fastliggere på Grønhøj strand camping siden 2001. (Husk grave værktøj til ungerne)

Hvordan gik det til, at der kom en kilde midt på stranden? Nej, det er ikke en hellig kilde, viet til "Vor Frue", den skal I til Thise bakker, nedenfor kirken, for at finde.
Kilden i Grønhøj er et resultat af seismiske sprængninger, der blev foretaget i 1960'erne for at finde ud af, om der var olie i Grønhøjs undergrund. Det var der heldigvis ikke, men vand var der.
Men kilder har man ikke lov til at lave, så det kostede meget besvær at få reduceret vandmængden til det, den er i dag! Der går rygter om, at der blev pumpet beton ned i undergrunden for at stoppe vandet, men heldigvis med begrænset resultat.

Nu til cachen.

Den er ikke på start koordinatet men afstanden derfra og til kilden i runde meter + Det mål der står på stolpen af det store hvide skilt ved nedkørselen til Grønhøj Strand (GC - - - - - - -). Målt fra kilden.
Alt sammen kurs 59,1/2 grader.

English:

Grønhøj beach is one of Denmark's best beaches and have the blue flag, (visit link) there is shallow water well out with lovely soft sand. The beach is very wide and even and is a very popular place for kite buggies ( (visit link) ) precisely because it is so broad and even here, it is possible to travel by car from Løkken to Blokhus, which around. midway you are passing Grønhøj.
There are many hilly rolling sand dunes, where it is possible to find a hollow where there is shelter for the wind to sun bathe. Last of the afternoon is the chance to buy freshly fish from fishmonger’s car that comm.’s down to the beach. They can then be cooked on the barbecue on the beach before you finally can enjoy the magnificent sunset, where you can be lucky to see the porpoise near the coast.
By descent to the beach are available toilet and kiosk. Beside the kiosk is an old bunker, which sometimes contains changing art exhibitions.
Well a hundred meters from Ilbæk brook down the beach, there is a spring that sends sparkling clean fresh Water up in the middle on the beach.
A really good playground for children and adults who think it is fun to build canals, dams and ports on the beach where the water will continue to gush forth.
Here, our own son ØRKEN-BANANEN spent a great many hours digging and building sand castles with his friends because we have bin continuously camping at Grønhøj Strand camping since 2001. (Remember digging tool for the kids)

How did that happen, that there was a spring at the middle of the beach? No, it is not a sacred spring, dedicated to "Our Lady", that must you to Thise hills, below the church, to find.
The spring of Grønhøj is a result of seismic blasting that was carried out in the 1960s to find out whether there was oil in Grønhøjs underground. That there fortunately was not , but the water was there.
But springs are you not allowed making, so it took much effort to reduce the water too what it is today! There are rumours that there was pumped concrete into the subsoil to stop the water, but fortunately with little result.

Now to the cache.
It are not at the start coordinate but the distance from the start coordinate to the spring in rounded meters + the measuring painted on the signpost of the large white sign at descent to Grønhøj Beach (GC - - - - - - -).All rate 59.1/2 degrees measuret from the spring

Cache is located in a public place Happy Hunting
