Geocache Description:


A geoláda a geocaching.hu oldalon GCORKI név alatt szerepel.
This cache is also available on geocaching.hu as GCORKI


The sight:
The first lookout tower (made of wood) was erected on the Balázs-mountain (much more a hill then a mountain) in 1975. Unfortunately, it burnt down in 1987.
The local self-government wanted to replace it, so in 1994 it bought an iron derrick and erected at the spot of the old tower. A five-storey staircase and platforms were built around it and finally the new tower was opened in 2001.

Parking:
As this is a resort area the residence kindly request visitors to leave their cars in the marked parking lot. According to the sign there, the tower is 300 m from here. (I think it is more like 500.) It is possible, just frowned at by the locals to drive up directly to the tower on the dirt/gravel-road.
