Hiidenkirnu Traditional Cache

This cache is named after a giant's kettle (hiidenkirnu) in Lauttasaari. As the surrounding rocks tend to get very crowded in summer, the cache itself is placed out of direct sight.

How to find the kettle?

• Find a bench that reads "Ystävyydelle", sit down and enjoy the view. Then look right, locate a small group of trees and go there.
• Or just navigate to the waypoint located at N 60° 9.155' E 24° 51.336'
