Description
A short hike from Vasilikos, can also be done by car for most of the distance (we walked for about 1.5 hours in one direction). At a height of just 170 meter this viewpoint offers two very different views. Either a great view over the calm descending hills to the northeast or the rugged coast in the southwest.
Leave the main road from Vasilikos to Zakynthos-Town at the
small church at N 37° 43.824' E 020° 58.268' , and follow the small
street hillwards in direction Southwest. After several curves
through olive groves, a good parking place is at N 37° 43.392' E
020° 58.069', or you can go by car as close as you dare.
When arriving at the junction N 37° 43.366' E 020° 57.998', keep on
the concreted road running slightly right (not the dirt road sharp
rightmost), leading southwards.
The last good parking place is about 50 meters below the cache,
immediately after a hairpin bend. About 100 meters after the cache
are two big cellular phone masts, the road ends there with no
convenient possibility to reverse.
The cache is hidden beside a tree, under a heap of stones, among
small rocks.
Please hide the cachebox well under some stones after finding
it.
And please don't put any flammable items into the cache, just to
avoid a fire hazard !!
The cache is a deep freeze box ( 14 * 14 * 6 cm), it initially contained:
(V 1.01 (fire hazard added))

The spolier picture has changed in the course of time, but we found the right place after a few minutes [8D]. Thanks for hiding the cache and showing this viewpoint!

30 June 2007 Hynz found the geocache
Last day for me on Zakynthos. After walking up the hill I surrounded the antennas and I found on the NE side of the hill (just 60 m from the cache) a look-out (see picture). The cache was found easily.
Thanx, Heinz from Austria

Get to the cache per motorbike - what is rally not advisable because of the bad road. No problem by car. We had luck: enough place for the Seed Bug.
