Viktor Kingissepa nimeline 11. Piirivalvesalga 7. kordon Tagarannas on Saaremaa arvukatest nõukogudeaegsetest militaarrajatistest üks paremini säilinuid. Kuigi lahkujate ja ehk ka hilisemate uudistajate poolt rüüstatud, on enamik hooneid katuse all ja nende esialgne funktsioon selgelt äratuntav.

Selle aarde leidmiseks ongi vaja leida kuus kohta kordoni kesksest linnakust. Nendest kuuest kohast leiab igaühest ühe numbri, mis siin antud järjekorras kokku panduna annavad kauguse ja asimuudi nullist kuni aardeni. Otsitavad kohad on:
1. Bassein
2. Koerte maja
3. Torukujuline varjend
4. Kõrgeim koht
5. Kinomehhaaniku ruum
6. Kasvuhoone
