This is a multi-cache that will take you along the New Town Trail in Irvine & Kilwinning.
If you do it in order it should take you back to where you started and not too far away from the cache.
The listed coords are for parking at Eglinton Country Park.
If you cycle you should be able to complete the trail in about 1hr 30mins if you're fit and quick, longer if you're not (it's a 13 mile/19km loop). Walking it will obviously take much much longer!
