Description
This cache leads you to a beautiful view over the Lakes of Hestur.
Hestur is an island of 5 km length and 1 km width, with a total of 6.1 km² in size. In the only village on the island live about 25 people.
Hestur is connected to Gamlarætt on Streymoy by the ferries Spógvin and Teistin, which sail the trip 2-4 times a day by request. You can check out the timetables at ssl.fo to plan your trip.
To get to the highland part of Hestur, follow the path that leads upwards from the coordinates given by the Path (beginning of path up) waypoint. Once you have made your way up, you are rewarded by stunning views over the lakes and the neighbouring islands!
The cache container is a lock & lock box. The box contains a petling container, which contains the logbook to give an extra level of protection from wetness. Please keep the logbook in the petling container, even though the lock & lock box should stay dry.
Maintenance will be performed by local cacher johnmilling, should it become necessary. Thanks a lot!
