Geocache Description:

The cache was active for four days before it was destroyed. Amazing how careless people are. Now it is the third Cahen I have to repair at 14 days.


Nordlandsbanen South



From the far south of Playa de Los Cristianos and north of Playa de las Americas there is a walkway that is largely separate from car traffic, called Beachpromenade.

It is both used ceramic tiles and concrete surfaces, and I think there is also some asphalt too. At a short distance of approx. 30m where there is new road, is the surfaces sand.

I choose to say that the promenade ends at a beach in the north. Of course it is possible to go further, but you need to first go over a beach and continue on the pavement on the streets. Then I think it would be wrong to call it the Beach Promenade.

I've heard different figures given how long Beach Promenade, but my wife and I walked the Beach Promenade today, and my GPS measured distance between the caches Nordlandsbanen South and Nordlandsbanen North to 10.3 km.



In the southern end of the promenade is an unofficial campsite where there always are many campers and caravans.

The box is small, and contains a logbook and two small pencils, but you should take your pen.

Today I have posted a cache at both ends of the promenade, and the names of the caches I have taken from a road that is located in a small village in northern Norway, where I was born.

Nordlandsbanen runs from Kalvaasen i south to Balsnes in the north.
