Austria / Slovenia: Geocaching and Mushroom hunting

With Nada we decided to go geocaching and find a T5 (hardest terrain difficulty) cache, that requires abseiling skills to find it. We drove to Medvedji dol valley in Austria and after a short hike we got to the dam. We found the suitable tree and throw the ropes over the dam and it was time for abseiling. After we located and found the cache we returned back home. In the evening John visited us and we went mushrooming. Someone beat us at our usual spot, still John found his mushroom and we ate it for dinner.

On our way to the dam we also found some caches

We carefully crossed the old bridge
