Geocache Description:


The cache is hidden near the monastery of Panayia tou Sinti, built in the 16th century. Perhaps because it's not the easiest place to find, not many people visit it. It may even not be marked on some maps. However, it's a very interesting building in a very nice place, especially during springtime.

To go there, you can take the road to the village of Pentalia and follow the signs. Alternatively, you can take the road from Ayia Marina. For the second route, you may have to cross the river and a 4x4 is highly recommended (or required).

Near the monastery, there is another man-made structure. The cache is on a small hill behind that structure. From that point you should also be able to get a nice view of the river that flows during the winter.
Be carefull though when you take the cache out, since you will be in plain view of other visitors (if any).

The cache is a blue tupper with white lid, wrapped in a plastic bag.
