Geocache Description:



HET IS GENOEG GEWEEST !


GEOPATRA

PS: neem de cache incl. evt. TB's maar mee svp. !!






Geocaching is een stiekeme hobby die alleen kan voortbestaan indien de deelnemers zich dit realiseren en zich er naar gedragen: !! WEES STIEKEM !!



 

 

 

 DKFietspad is a bikelane along the DRONGELENS KANAAL from Vught to Drunen(/Waalwijk) and v.v. .

Start at N 51° 40.281   E 5° 17.085 : bridge across the kanaal.   

Cross the bridge to the northbank and follow west all the way down to the "Roeivijver".

From there on turn back on the northbank.

If you want to visit the southbankcaches take the first bridge you meet and cross to the southbank. From this point you can follow the southbank on a dirtroad which is partly sandy.

When done cross a next bridge to the northbank again. You may want to stay on the southbank, which is very well possible and very interesting, but then it is tiresome too because most of the path can be rather sandy. Especially in summer!

The path is safe , smooth and offers shadow, and has a total length -up and down- of some 20 km.

Along and nearby the path several geocaches can be visited :

1: GCP2QX : An unexpected surprise

This cache is named after The Isabella-barracks that are located just on the other side of the road.

Nowadays it houses refugees from all over the world, waiting -and hoping- for a permit to stay in the Netherlands.

The area is shaped like a “Lunette” with a winding moat around its borders. This is best seen on the map.

 

The route has a length of about  2-3 km. and –altogether- 7 waypoints.

6 Waypoints will provide you with the necessary information – amongst which there is an underlined puzzle - to find the cache.

Place the underlined text in the right order to find out it's hidden key !

You will need some imagination too.

 

After the given startingpoint you will need to find the first 3 waypoints which are given at random:

  • N 51 40,402   E 5 17,145
  • N 51 40,338   E 5 17,115     ( corrected 28-10-2006)
  • N 51 40,389   E 5 17,178.

 

At wpt’s 2, 3, 5 and 6 a fotocanister is used to provide you with information.

Btw.: one waypoint is a  about 25cm. high -more or less white- stone pole with an inscription - AB.- on top of it. This inscription is necessary for the projection towards wpt 5:

(2*A*AB)m. and (AB)º is the information needed to make the projection towards wpt. 5!!

 

Enjoy !
