Geocache Description:

Teviot Valley Walkways - Bullock Track No 2


This one is at the top of the Bullock Track. and can be reached by continuing, on foot, up the hill from the Bullock Track No 1 cache.

The easiest way to get there however, by far, is to go by 4WD or Mountain Bike via Craig Rd., turn left onto Mt Hope Rd. It might be possible to use this route by a non 4WD in the middle of summer but probably not recommended, enquire locally.

If you decide to climb, on foot, to the top please note the advice given re times and clothing etc. on the sign board at the bottom of the track.

Because of the altitude (about 880m)and the high possibility of snow on the road, this cache site may not be available during the winter months. The period of inaccessibility by road would be from about the 1st of May until about the 31st of August, depending on the severity of the winter.

The most spectacular views of our valley can be seen from this vantage point, well worth going there to get.

The container is a 450ml, green lidded "ClickClack". It is hidden at sort of ground level(clamber around the big rock a bit?)
