Cache is a large Lock-N-Lock in the Hunter's Island section of
Pelham Bay Park
At 2,764 acres, Pelham Bay Park is the largest park in New York
City. There are quite a few remarkably beautiful spots that make
you wonder if you're really in New York City. This is one of
them.
The closest parking is at Orchard Beach (fee in the summer months)
but you can also park in the parking lot off of Middletown road in
the neighborhood of Country Club, and follow the paved trails
through the park and over the drawbridge toward Orchard Beach. If
you take this route, I'd recommend bringing a bike! The Bx. 5 &
12 stop at Orchard Beach in the summer months and the Bx 29 will
take you as far as the City Island Traffic Circle. Take it to the
Rodmans Neck Stop.
There is a nice system of trails through Hunters Island, and many
options of approach. Bring a camera and a bag for CITO!! Cache is
about 100 feet off of the trail please replace it carefully and
keep an eye out for muggles!
