Geocache Description:


This cache is a part of a Royal Canal Way Geotrail


Cache is not hidden at given coordinates.
To find the cache you need to look for the sign at GZ and take note of the 4 words in english. Count the frequency of each letter in the 4 words and then use a Danish GADE to complete the formula:
N 53 (I)(M).(O-N-D)(Q-K)(P-N-J)
W006 (I)(O).(N-F)(B)(C-E)

A Danish GADE is a method invented by a geocacher of the same name, to take the collected digits and formulate a solution - this method is widely used in Denmark for multis and puzzles. When you have found the numbers, do this: Sort the individual digits - low to high. If, for instance, the numbers you found were 6, 17, 9 and 6 sort the digits like this: 16679 Then complete the line, with the missing digits 16679023458 now you have: a=1, b=6, c=6, d=7, e=9, f=0, g=2, h=3, i=4, j=5 og k=8 Remember to repeat digits that occur more than once. This was just an example. Do the same with the numbers you have found! - Enjoy!




Royal Canal

The Royal Canal was a man-made waterway constructed to connect the River Liffey in Dublin with the upper River Shannon. Works commenced in Dublin in 1790 and lasted 27 years at a total cost of £1,421,954. The total length is 145 kilometres (90 miles) and has 46 locks. Whilst the canal was originally built for freight and passenger transportation, the railway era in the mid 1800’s signaled the demise of canal use and in 1961 the canal was officially closed to all navigation as it had fallen into disrepair. Thankfully in recent decades, much of it has been restored and is now enjoyed by people from all walks of life.
