Geocache Description:


[LAT]
Šajā vietā vietā Daugava ietek jūrā. Slēpnis konkrēti atrodas pie Daugavgrīvas bākas. 

Daugavgrīvas bāka atrodas Daugavas grīvas kreisajā krastā un ir viena no četriem Daugavgrīvas kultūrvēsturiskajiem pieminekļiem. Pirmo bāku pie tagadējās Daugavas grīvas, domājams, uzbūvēja zviedri ap 17. /18. gs. miju. Kopš 1788. gada bāka tika modernizēta, bet 1919. gada kauju laikā tā nodega. Daugavgrīvas bāku atkal atjaunoja 1921. gada sākumā - baltā dzelzsbetona torņa augstums kopā ar laternu bija 32 metri, bet torņa iekšējais diametrs sasniedza 3,25 metrus. Šo celtni 1944. gadā atkāpjoties uzspridzināja Vācijas karaspēks. 1945. gadā bākas vietā tika uzbūvēts koka pagaidu tornis, bet pašreizējā Daugavgrīvas bāka uzcelta 1957. gadā.

Lielisks galamērķis svētdienas pastaigai ar bērniem un ja nav spēcīgs vējš, iespējams pat var mēģināt aiziet līdz Dienvidu mola galam!

Slēpnis satur viesugrāmatu, zīmuli un asināmo, kā arī pirmajam atradējam ceļotājs. Protams, ņemiet ceļotāju tikai tad, ja zinat, ka tā nav mantiņa priekš bērniem vai suņa! :)
