This is an almost circular walk with plenty of parking. Rodway Hill is a recreational area with the Bristol and Bath Cycle path running through it. Its used by mountain bikers, walkers, dog walkers & families. This multicache is set out in a way that you can learn about the history of Rodway Hill. The cache box is fairly small and in a Camo bag. The cache route is not really suitable for pushchairs.
I suggest you start at the first coordinates above which should put you near an information board at the disused Mangotsfield Station.
Stage 1
In order to proceed to Stage 2 explore the nearby station to solve the riddle and answer the questions.
I surround what can be seen through,
My centre can break into many sharp pieces,
You will find quite a few of me on this station platform,
Where am I?
When you think you know where you should be answer the following questions:
A) How many bicycles can you see? A=
B) How many trains can you see? B=
C) How many people running can you see (don’t count the legs on the top) C= runners / 3
D) D= Answer A-1
Substitute the letters to reveal your second coordinates
N51 28.(D-1)(D-B)(B-C) W002 28.(D+C)(A)(A+D-B)
Stage 2
What is the 2 digit number on the Ring Road Path sign? Allocate the letters EF and substitute below for the third coordinates.
N51 28.(F-E)(F-E)F W002 29.E(E+F)E
Now take the path to the Ring Road (its signposted above you and drops away from the main cycle path!)
Stage 3
Solve the riddle, find the item and following its instructions
I am creepy,damp & dark,
I mostly go under but can sometimes go over,
To continue the hunt you must go though me.
What am I?
Final Stage
On your way to the final cache sit down and admire the view - you will probably need it!
N51 (E+E) (A+E).FC(A+E)
W002 (E+E)(C+F).(D-F)(A-B)(F+D-C)
