The Monastery + Access to Tara River (600m walk) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Cenarius: Hi Alson team,

Unfortunately there's been some continuing issues with this cache and there is no reaction from the owner. Since the cache no longer meets the Guidelines requirements, I am archiving it. I'm also archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you think you have legitimate reasons for lack of maintenance and want to restore the cache in the near future, please let me know as soon as possible by the email provided in my profile. The message must include the GC code and the name of the cache. If the cache meets the requirements of the Guidelines and the reasons for unarchiving are justified, I may unarchive the cache.

IMPORTANT:
In case of permanent archiving of the cache, the owners are obliged to remove everything that they have placed on the field in relation to the cache (container and all placed waypoints).

Thank you for your understanding and best regards.

Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Monastery of St. George set in the picturesque area of the Tara Canyon and its village Dobrilovina. We’ve fallen in love with this place while staying less then 100 metres from the Monastery. Highly recommend to spend a night here.

 

PLEASE do not take photo’s of the nuns or Monastery without their permission. The friendly nuns will be happy to give you a little tour of the Monastery like they did with us.

 

Little is know about its history but it existed before 1592. The Monastery had a troubled history with difficult times and attacks from the Turks forcing the teachers and pupils to hold and attend classed in a nearby cave where pupils took turns guarding the entrance with rifles. 

Interesting Fact: It is said that the Monastery had its own milk pipe line. A channel by which fresh milk was transported from the surrounding pastures to the Monastery. 

More information on the board in front of the Monastery itself, just near the drinking fountain.  
 

The cache is located on the side street off the main road that leads to the Monastery. This street is not shown on Google Maps, but is well signed (see photos). You’ll find the cache on the bend just after the path to the river, hidden from the eyes of Muggles. Don’t drive down the river unless you have a jeep. 

 

Happy hunting.
