Dear geocachers!

This multicache will take you through the centre of the town of Oberhofen as well as the surrounding forests. The path to the treasure takes a good hour on foot.

The best thing to do is to leave your caching vehicle by the school:

At the coordinates indicated you will find the name of the branching road. Count the “e”s on the sign and write down the number as B.

B=

E 011° 05.547

Your path will take you to a railway underpass. How many hedgehogs are depicted there? Write the number down as C.

C=

“Vorrang geben” (Give way) traffic sign

N 47° 17.992
E 011° 05.639

Above the traffic sign, you will find a street name. If you take each word individually, how many first names make up the street name? Write the number down as D.

D=

Road junction

N 47° 17.796
E 011° 05.816

How many yellow arrow-shaped signposts can you see here? Double this and call this number E.

E 011° 05.890

From this point, you should be able to see a small chapel on the other side of the field to your left. How many windows do you see on the south side of the chapel? Multiply the number by 3 and note the number as F.
