Geocache Description:

Starting at Enaerios at the heart of the old tourist area, let's take a stroll (or cycle) along the seafront path, through the Sculpture Park at Molos, past the beautiful buildings and atmosphere of the old port, into the striking architectural splendour of the New Marina and on to your final destination. Tweezers will be needed at the final.


A tribute to another multi that used to run along the seafront from here called Open Air Art, I've taken that and extended it further

The route is about 3km, so you might like to take the number 30 bus back if your little legs have had enough. The clues are mostly counting and observing surroundings, the only physical element is the final cache box. I've tried to keep the stages centred upon art, sculpture and interesting objects as much as possible.

I haven't used all the sculptures at Molos (there were just too many), but do take a while to visit them on your way through, there's a full list below with coordinates. Upload me a picture of your favourite, we'll have a vote!

Take your time, keep drinking plenty of water, take lots of photos, and for the young at heart you might like to bring a small ball to fully enjoy one of the exhibits.

The final cache is a micro in a small hide, log only

To keep you organised you can copy and print this below, it'll help you to jot things down as you go and when you sit down at the end and work out all those numbers.
