Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden in the middle of a mountain. There is a trail that goes up to 2 meters from the cache. Sometimes you can take the car some other times you can not. Today this possible so the access to the cache is quite easy.

About the cache: the cache is a plastic rectangular white box of about 20cmX10cm; it is inside a white plastic bag for further protection; it contains a logbook, a pen, a 1 peseta spannish coin and a special map of Braga.

About the location:

Drive to Vieira do Minho then you are on your own.
You should face this as a one day trip with your family.
The place is quite beautiful, there are places to pic-nic, there are natural swimming pools (you are in the middle of AVE river springs), there trails to hike and mountain bike.

The cache is in an abandoned house from the old forest guard.

There's a nice trail beginning at that house called the "chestnut trees path". Do it with you family.

If you intend to go on autumn take some bags to fill with chestnuts. In summer, take your swim shorts...

Enjoy the hunt.
