Geocache Description:

Mali geocache smješten je u blizini brdskog jezerca Vilinsko oko. / Small geocache is located near hill pond Vilinsko oko (Fairy Eye).

Fairy Eye

Jezerce «Vilinsko oko» nalazi se na vrhu virovitičkog dijela Bilogore na 245 metara nadmorske visine, u blizini Ribnjaka i državne ceste D5 (Terezino Polje - Kutina), desetak kilometara od Virovitice. Jezerce veličine 55x20 metara oduvijek je bilo stjecište šumskih radnika i lugara koji su se pokraj njega odmarali od napornog rada, ali je široj javnosti malo poznato. Legenda kaže da je ime dobilo jer su oko njega plesale vile, a po njemu je i čitav šumski predio nazvan Vilinska kosa. Jezerce je bilo ucrtano i u vojne karte što znači da se voda, u slučaju nužde mogla koristiti i za piće.

Na šetnju do jezerca Vilinsko oko može se krenuti s ceste D5 (E661). Treba slijediti najjužniju trećinu planinarske staze Vilinsko oko. Ovaj dio planinarske staze dugačak je oko 5 km, a jezerce je točno na njegovoj polovini.
