Geocache Description:

ITALIANO: Questo cache e´ nascosto nei pressi del "Giardino del sole", un piccolo parco che circonda l´osservatorio astronomico di Righi. ENGLISH: This cache is hidden near to an observatory, which is located in Righi.

**********************************************************

Il cache e´nascosto in una pietra del muro da cui l'osservatorio si affaccia.

Potete approfittare dell´occasione per fare una passeggiata nei dintorni, visitare il forte che sorge sulla cima della collina e godere di una bellissima vista sulla citta'.

Il modo piu' semplice per raggiungere Righi e' prendere la funicolare che parte da Zecca (N 44.24.807, E 8.55.803). Righi e' il capolinea.

**********************************************************

Close to the observatory is a small park called "Giardino del sole". The cache is behind the park, hidden in a stone wall.

Righi offers a great view over Genova. It is recommendable to walk around and also visit the fortress on the top of the hill.

An easy and nice way to reach Righi is to take a funicolare from Zecca. To do this, go first to the end of Via Cairoli. You should then see a funicolare station (N 44'24.807, E 8'55.803). There is only one possible direction, and Righi is the last stop. It is a short walk from Righi station to the cache.

Small note on cache maintenance: I am here often on business, but am also assisted on the local level by cicci for any needed maintenance.
