The cache is located in Bitza Park, one of the largest parks in Moscow. The park sprawls for some 10 km from north to south and covers the area of 18 square kilometres.
The park is traversed by several rivers: Derevlevski brook, Chertanovka, Dubinkinskaya, Gorodnya, and Bitza.
There is a small and scenic waterfall on Dubinkinskaya river. We suggest you to visit the place. By the way, the park is an iconic place for Moscow bikers.
You may wish to start from one of the most common entries to the Park at N55°38.234', E37°32.652'. Or you can start at another entrance at N55°38.0278', E37°32.5457' which is a bit closer to the cache and gives you a chance to meet one of the squirrels living there.
Then you may proceed to N55°37.9489', E37°33.3585' where you will enjoy the famous springs. People believe that the water is crystal-clear so you can see for yourself.
The next reference point N55°37.7232', E37°33.6451' is entrance to ruined Soviet-era bombshelter heavily painted with graffiti.
The cache is hidden near the waterfall (N55°37.4503', E37°33.2195') - just go down the river a bit to the next improvised passage.
