Located in Fernwood Botanical Gardens and Nature Preserve along the beautiful St. Joseph River. Parking is only allowed at the Mary Plym Visitor Center. Please enter the grounds through this entrance before starting your search for all Fernwood caches.

All of the caches have either a Railroad or Fairy Tale theme so enjoy the creative containers. Perhaps you’ll see the trains as they turn themselves around at this spot. All caches can be reached without leaving the trails or mowed areas.

Since there are Visitor Fees (see below), take time to hike the other numerous trails and gardens, take a break with visits to the Nature Center and Gallery Exhibits and if your present at lunch time you can bring your own picnic or select something from the cafe. Please make sure you pick up a map of the grounds and follow Fernwood's no off trail hiking rules.

Bring a pen or pencil as you will need one for several of Fernwood’s caches. This set of caches has been placed with Fernwood staff approval.

No bushwhacking or leaving the trail is allowed or required, just ingenuity and careful thought. The cache can be accessed with your feet on the trail.

Had the chance to grab a few caches around Niles, Buchanan and Berrien Springs today. The ones we found along the St Joe River were very enjoyable as we had numerous opportuinties to watch the folks in the river catch some huge steelhead. The run must be on, as they were out everywhere in force. Along the way to Fernwood, we met up with KKV and completed all of the caches in here. Always enjoy returning to this wonderful place. Cache is in great shape. N/T, S/L, KOC
