Geocache Description:


The details are NOT the final cache; they are for parking at the ‘Robin Hood’., Little Matlock

This is a 3km circular stroll on well marked footpaths. You will descend from the dizzy heights of 190m above sea level to 115m and back again! At the end you have the reward of being back at the ‘Robin Hood’ watering hole. Sensible footwear recommended. There are stiles which might make it a little difficult for the less mobile amongst you. It might be advisable to take a map ( such as 1:25000 Explorer Map 278 Sheffield and Barnsley).
There is a lot of tree cover on this stroll so I have put caches in, or near clearings to help you keep your bearings.

On this stroll there is an initial puzzle to get you on the right track, 2 multicache clues (to help keep you on the right path) with further reference information and the final cache.

To get you on your way:
At the Robin Hood find the Rhyme on the sign:
