Geocache Description:

The cache is located in the Pelister National Park at an altitude of 2238 meters at the big glacier lake at Pelister (Golemo Ezero).

The cache can be reached through various hiking trails. A guide for inexperienced mountain walkers is highly recommended! You have to expect a travel time of 4-5 hours!

Beware of snakes at the cache place!

Near the town Bitola, there is the Baba (meaning Grandma) Mountain with the magnificent Mount Pelister (2601 meters, or 8533 feet). Pelister is the third highest peak inthe Republic of Macedonia and is filled with exquisite flora and fauna.

Pelister is also known for its two glacier lakes, which are called Pelister's Eyes. The Big lake is 2,218 meters above the sea level while the Small lake is 2,180 meters high.

This cache is hidden near the Big Lake.

Before the hike it is necessary to observe the weather as the weather changes quickly at this level and can be dangerous. For inexperienced mountain walkers
this hike should only be undertaken with a guide.
