Geocache Description:

A challenging hike of about 10 km around the old tramway of the valley of the Aisne. Along the way there are 17 caches and a bonus. All 17 caches contain a code that will guide you to the bonus. All codes appear more than once, should you miss one.

As the hike will probably take a few hours, note that there is a nice picnic area near cache 11.


Today a part of the tramway is still open to the public during the summer season. You can board the tram at Pont d'Erezée. A timetable is available at www.tta.be. The tram will bring you all the way to the station of Forge à la Plez, the start of the hike. Of course you can also get there by car. There is ample parking space near this picturesque station.

During the hike you can find 17 caches and a bonus. In order to find the bonus you should do the following things:

  • Walk the 10 km
  • Find all the codes
  • Find along the tramway a temporary station

The name of this latter station will reveal the value of X. Reduce the character value of this name to one figure.

The bonus can be found at the following coordinates:

  • N50 1A.(H - X)(B - A)(D - F)
  • E005° 3C.(D + E)(X - F)(G - E)

Good luck!
