Geocache Description:

The cache is by a mid-Byzantine church called Panagh tu Kira Kilisesi near the town of Mehmetcik in the middle of the Karpasia Peninsula.


You can get to about 100m from the church in a normal car as long as you are careful. The track eventually gets replaced by a field so you will have to park and walk.


The church is worth looking inside as there is still a small piece of the original ceiling painting.


The nearby hill is more easily scaled from the right-hand side but is not suitable for pushchairs/wheelchairs. It gives a marvelous view of the Karpas mountains.


This is first cache on this part of the island. It is a standard airtight plastic tub.


Happy geocaching
