Another cool adventure among the Lakatnik rocks!
This is a magnificent rocky massif with vertical walls, part of the
left slope of the Iskar Gorge. It is situated opposite Lakatnik Sta-
tion on the railway line between Sofia and Varna at an altitude of
about 600 m. Its relative altitude is 250 m. The lime here is cut
by many caves, entrances and galleries. The largest cave is the
Dark Hole, where there is an underground river. Its waters come
to the surface in the form of a swift-flowing carst spring, known
by the name of Jitolyub. The cave is characterized by an
interesting fauna. The Dark Hole is not adapted for mass visits,
although it is often visited by tourists.
The Rocks of Lakatnik are
an excellent place for alpinism.
There is an alpine shelter at
600 m and a camping at the foot of the rocks.
Your cache is a regular box, hidden almost on the top of the rocks. There is a public eco-trail, secured by fences leading to the top of the rocks - make sure to find it and follow it. But still, be carefull, especially in bad weather! The cache is NOT on the edge of the rocks; so do not go near the edge at all and be carefull! Do not go for the cache at all if the weather conditions aren't quite good in order to provide good stability when searching for the box.
Happy caching!
