Start your search at the parking lot. Of course any other starting point will do the job too.
After a short walk you will reach the coordinates at the well. Look for a small metal plate right on top of the water tap. You will find two german words written on the plate. Use the second letter from the first word to complete the North-coordinates. Just follow the same procedure for the East-coordinates. You will have to decode letter number seven from the second word. We provided you with an according Alphabet for translation (A=0, a=1, B=2, ... usw.). Please note that ipper and lowercase letters have different numbers.
N 49°50.1?5
| ? = 2nd letter from word 1
E008°39.9?9 | ? = 7th
letter from word 2
Inside the small shelter hut look for a small laminated piece of paper (size of a business card) showing the next coordinates.
Important: Please do not forget to hide the coordinates again, so that the next cache searching folks have a chance to find the coordinates too.
After reaching station number three prepare to enjoy a beautiful scenic view - good weather conditions presupposed. Be prepared to have some money with you, if you're interested to climb up the tower (fee required, 1 Euro adults, 50 Cent children). Also there is a small restaurant nearby, where you can buy drinks and some fast food (view opening times on the right). But do not rest to early, you are only a few minutes away from the cache.
Between the tower and the small restaurant you will find a wooden sign above your head on a tree (picture to the right). Add the value 22 to the according numeric value of the 1st letter of the last word of the sign [ Alphabet ] and you can complete the North-coordinate.
To complete the East-coordinate you must find a metal sign (view picture to the left). The sign ist posted on the entry of the nearby white building with the remarkable dome on top. Read the telephone number (from left to right) and solve the following little calculating exercise - which will give you the last missing coordinates.
((((Digit 1 + Digit 2) * Digit 3) + Digit 4) * Digit 5) + 13 = ??
N 49°50.6??
| ? = (1st letter word 3) + 22
E008°39.??3 | ? =
calculating exercise (see text)
The cache you are looking for will be wrapped by a green plastic bag. Search for a great stump. Please do not forget to mark your visit in the logbook. Have fun! We would be happy to hear from you.
