KVARNER Cache 33 is located on the hill Petehovac above Delnice in Gorski kotar. Petehovac, as a significant landscape, is of special importance for tourism in Delnice. It rises to the southeast of Delnice and resembles a step in the relief. Behind Petehovac a mountain plateau stretches towards the Mrkopalj area. With some of the peaks rising over 1,000m, the plateau is particularly good for ski touring. In 1949 a mountain lodge was built on Štimčev Vrh (1,024 m) thanks to the efforts of volunteers, hikers and mountain climbers who carried building material all the way from Delnice. The lodge was named after the nearby Petehovac peak (1,098 m), little further to the southeast. Thirteen years later, an annexe was built nearby. The facilities, along with the nearby chair lift, were the very cornerstones of tourism in Delnice at that time.
At present, the Mountanious centre Petehovac operates round the year with a modern ski-lift, numerous paths and nice private hotel on the place of former mountaineering hut.
You will find cache at Jagodina stijena (Jagoda's Rock) which is just a five-minute walk from the central object. There is a legend about the place, which Milivoj Magdić wrote down in 1934 (a story entitled "Jagoda's Love").
