Geocache Description:

This container is approx the size and shape of a drinks can which contains a log book and pencil and swaps.

When the weather has been wet (most of the time in the Lake District) I would recommend to access the cache via the hill directly opposite the stile and not walk across the grassy/boggy area.

The River Derwent & tributaries is one of the finest large river systems in Europe. The quality and importance of the wildlife and habitats along the river is widely recognised and they are protected under European law as a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The river is also a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).

Salmon and Sea Trout are in decline on the Greta and Derwent as in many other parts of the U.K. The Derwent and Greta rivers and their tributaries are key spawning and nursery areas for these fish and essential to their survival.

The Greta is a high quality descent for kayakers or open canoeists.
