Location

In the Grębałów Cemetery in Cracow. Someone's going to get the coffin potato award...

Participants

Malgond alone.

Plans

Malgond wants to go in the evening. It should be easy as a pie even for a GPS-challenged geohasher.

Just start at the main entrance, go along the main alley to the central square, walk around it, turn right and follow the lane up to the intesection. Turn left then right and walk a little more.

After reaching a green path between graves, walk back counting to ten. The grave behind the tenth one receives the award.

Expedition

My expedition was successful. The coffin potato awards goes to the late Mr. Eugeniusz Ziaja. I have said prayers for the peace of his soul. More details to follow.

Side-expedition

Next to the cemetery lies the Grębałów Fort, one of the many fortifications built around Kraków in the second half of the 19th century during Austro-Hungarian rule. Unfortunately I have found the gate closed and guarded by a dog.
