Geocache Description:

The second annual Irish cachers' get-together, and the first to be held in Northern Ireland. Saturday June 25th 2005

A chance to visit the beautiful North Antrim Coast, with some excellent caches within easy reach. Stunning scenic attractions such as the Giant's Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge (see main photo) are close by.


The location:
We will assemble at Glenmore House (Grid ref: 082 406 OS Sheet 5) at 15.30Hrs on Saturday afternoon.

There'll be time to chat and swap travel bugs, before a barbecue at 17.30(weather permitting). There is a small licensed bar on the premises.

Some of the best caches in Ireland lie within a few miles of the venue, suitable for a Sunday morning expedition.
