Geocache Description:

Behind the 1st chocolate factory in the world there is a cache with CD's - please exchange a new CD for each one you take out.

Find the big green "Chocolate pipe" going to the factory at Broc. This pipe brings down the chocolate from its source deep in the hills (ho ho). Your goal is to walk to the top of the pipe and find a cache under a traditional hiding place.

The Cailler-Nestlé candy factory in Broc, Canton Fribourg, offers a free half-hour, multilingual video presentation about the manufacture of chocolate. After you've sat through the show, you can gorge on free Swiss chocolate and buy Cailler or Nestlé candy bars at factory prices. Weekday hours are 9:00 a.m. - 11 a.m. and 1:30 - 4:00 p.m., May through October.

At the beginning of the century, Alexandre Cailler, inventor of the milk chocolate, left the lake Geneva in search for a good place for his chocolate factory. His choice was Broc.

The green pipe can't be seen from the parking place at N46 36.405 E7 6.474 because it is behind the factory.

Park and walk behind the factory - you are looking for a path to "Botterens". Take this path up the hill.

Then look for a fire hydrant next to the top of the "Chocolate pipe" at N46 36.559 E7 6.640 and then take 120 paces back down the path to the factory. On the left of the path you can find a cache in a traditional hiding place.
