This is multi-stage micro-cache, located in the Eastern section of the Sherover Promenade near East Talpiot. It is such a beautiful view that there is not one tour of Jerusalem where this site is not included in the itinerary!
I located the two caches within a twenty minute walk from the parking area, to allow tourist who want to get away for an hour or less for some fresh air and an experience. This is one of them.
I recommend to continue walking on the paths after you find the caches. It will be a beautiful relaxing walk; it continues for only a few hundred meters and the views just get BETTER. Just turn around whenever. It is shaded in most sections with water fountains available for the thirsty. Good for bicycles too.
You will past the fourth shaft of the Aqueduct to Jerusalem, which is the deepest of all six shafts, 43 meters deep. It is amazing that the engineers from thousands of years ago built this 23 kilometer aqueduct, with a gentle slope of only 30 meters for the whole length. Talking about respecting the environment, this aqueduct used “free” gravity.
After finding the cache please hide the container with the same rock or another of similar color. If there are people nearby use stealth tactics... like tying your shoe or fixing the chain of your bicycle.
Hint for first stage:
Down 6 steps, over 10 bottom ones, up a little, just before big one. The container is a 35 film container, with the coordinates of the final waypoint.
Hint for Final Stage:
If you are sitting on the stone bench. look right to the South-East corner of the cove. The geocache container is a 35 mm film container with a black section of a bicycle tube to help conceal the container.
Additional Hint for final stage (because I want you to find it and have fun): If you are standing on the path, look to lower left hand corner. Look for open space one level up from the ground. Small rocks might try to conceal the geocache container, placed by me or the previous geocacher.
Request: IF needed, please re-hide the container behind some "small" rocks instead of just one big one. The smaller sized rocks screams out "hey Geocache hidden here"; while a big rock will cause a geocacher to upset the beautiful stone wall. See hint!
There are many people using this pathway for walking exercise, soooo be careful. If you think someone saw you and the geocache, please mention it in your comments or send me a separate email... I will check on the cache to make sure it was not disturbed afterward. It happens... no problem.
Enjoy.
