Description Deutsch · English
The Kieneck is 1107 m high. On the summit there is a mountain hut (Enzianhütte) which is open on weekends from April to October. From the summit you have a good view towards Ötscher, Schneeberg, Rax and Schneealm.
There are various approaches possible, I took the Enziansteig upwards and the way through the Viehgraben downwards. Parking for this variant is available at N 47° 55.646', E 015 ° 54.036' (about 200m AFTER the parking lot of the restaurant).
The cache is hidden somewhat below the summit because I couldn't find a decent hiding place on the top.
GPS-Reception was somewhat erratic so you may need the spoiler-picture or the hint. I hope the cache is not out of reach after snow-melt. It was a meter above ground when I hid it.
The cache is a small plastic-box (may contain small TBs). Please make sure that the contents is always wrapped in two plastic-bags, as I am not sure about the dryness of this hidingplace. Original contents: Logbook, pencil, cachenote. Beaded lion, sea-turtle, doctor-fish.
Have fun!

In der Gegend haben die Holzfäller gewerkt, wodurch der Cache dort nicht mehr sicher war.
Vielen Dank an cbba fürs Sicherstellen

Gemeinsame Wanderung mit Harrylime und CrazyGustav.
Vor Ort angekommen dachte wir kurz durch eine Forststrasse wurde der Cache wegplaniert, aber so neu war die strasse wohl doch nicht. Danach gings dann weiter Richtung Unterberg.

Im Zuge eines Firmenwandertages diesen netten Cache gehoben. Bei bestem Wetter ueber den Enziansteig hinauf und dem Mareschsteig wieder nach Thal. Ich hab diese Route eher eintoenig empfunden und es gab ausser bei der gut bewirtschafteten Enzianhuette fast keine Ausblicke. Thanx.
