Kaiafas Springs and Wells Multi-Cache

Greatland Reviewer: Γειά σας.

Αυτή η ιστοσελίδα έχει αρχειοθετηθεί λόγω έλλειψης αντίδρασης, μετά από μυνήματα που στάλθηκαν σχετικά με προβλήματα στην κρύπτη. Αν επιθυμεί ο ιδιοκτήτης, την επαναενεργοποίηση της, μπορεί να έλθει σε επαφή μαζι μου μέσω του profile μου, το συντομότερο δυνατό ,πριν μια νέα κρύπτη τοποθετηθεί στην περιοχή της.

Σημειώστε οτι η επαναενεργοποίηση μιάς κρύπτης απαιτεί την ίδια διαδικασία με τον έλεγχο νέας κρύπτης και θα ισχύουν οι τρέχοντες κανόνες.

Με εκτίμηση,

Geocache Description:

The thermal Springs of Kaiafas are located just outside of Zacharo. This really short, two-stage Multicache would like to show you two of the springs and a final location very similar to the Australian Outback.


The thermal springs are a geological formation that consists of several springs where warm water comes from deep inside the Earth's crust and flows up to the surface. The biggst spring is located inside a naturally formed cave in the foot of the Lapithas mountain. The water of the spring contains an important concentration of sulfur compounds and is also rich in minerals. The water is said to have therapeutic value and so there is a wellness area just outside of said cave.

The starting point and Stage One at N 37° 31.099 E 21° 36.425 of this cache is a small cave next to the road where a smaller well comes out of the mountain. This well is enclosed with a small building, but you can go inside and cool yourself in the water of the well.
Question A: The windows of this buildung are fenced with metal bars that are decorated with hearts. All hearts point into the same direction but some of them point to the opposite direction. How many of them are pointed the other way round?

Stage Two: At N 37° 31.141 E 21° 36.175 you can park your cachemobile. Directly to the parking spot is a small river, where you will find dozens of small turtles in the water. Bring some stale bread with you to feed those turtles. You will find that they almost take the bread out of your hands.
Opposite to the parking is the spa at the cave of the biggest spring at the lake. Directly in front of the building yu will find some small concrete benches to the left and right of the entrance. Them Number of those benches gives you B.

The Final Location is really easy to find. Go to N 37° 31. A+A+B+1 and E 21° 36.(A+1)(B*B)-(B+1). The area will remind you of the australian outback with all those Eucalyptus trees around.
