Geocache Description:

We have placed the cache on the top of Mt Risnjak. About 4km hike from the parking place at the border of the Risnjak National Park.

Trip to the cache has two parts. Starts with a nice hike of 3,2km from the parking place (N45 24.535 E14 37.106) at the border of the Risnjak National Park up to a rest house (N45 25.753 E14 37.331), not too steep, about 250m elevation difference. The second part goes from this point, it's only 400m long, but pretty steep (150m up), handrails help you along the rocky path. The cache is placed at 1527m, just below the highest point! Entry fee to the National park: 20kn (about 3 euros) The cache is a regular kitchen box, red top. There is a mobile phone in the cache for the first finder The real gift is the beautiful view one can experience from the lookout point. You can see the Adriatic Sea. And the surroundings are very much like the Alps. I've included a few pictures. Cache is hidden under a large rock on the picture, very near the lookout point. vgergo, mark, peter (Hungary)
