Geocache Description:

This cache is placed in a small bunker in Landsmarka that was build in WW2 by the Germans.

Drive from Tyrivann, take the Landsmarkavegen to the south and aprox 7 km. There is an excellent place for hiking just by the cache, a place kalled Kaasatangen. You can se it on the right side of the road when you aproach the cache from the north. There are a lot of fish as well in the big lake called Langen, but a fishing licencene must be bought before you start fishing. The first part from the road is rather steep so i would advice you not to go straight up from the road to the cache. Try from north or south instead. You can park by the intersection south of the cache.

This cache lays inside the mountain, so the first trick is to find how to get inside it:=) Good luck!

The bunker here is one that was supposed to stop an allied assult coming from the south at Landsmarkavegen. There is a simmilar position at the other side of the valley. This position was never in battle.

You MUST Bring a flashligt when visiting this cache. To get to the cache you will need it.

This is the main position. Notice the ridge on the right side that was some of the cover to the position.

The Cache contains a note book, pen and a Geo Cache sheet. Sorry, nothing to trade here except a very nice trip to get there.
