Tunbridge Wells Walk 1 is a series of 7 ‘micro’ caches
and one small cache spread over a circular walk of about 4 miles
(or two hours approx.) from a central position in Tunbridge Wells
on the Kent and Sussex border. The caches are made up of 7
traditional caches with clue letters and numbers that will lead you
to the 8th cache. The walk is intended to be circular and the
caches done in numerical order. However, they can be done
individually and in any order if you wish. All the hides should be
pretty easy, especially with the clues.
Most of the route is clearly marked but one or two paths are well
hidden. It is suggested that you take a decent map with you in any
case. The cache page descriptions will provide you with some
direction but following the GPS signal to the next cache will
usually be sufficient.
Dogs are allowed throughout but there is an open field for one
stretch so they should be kept on a lead where appropriate.
Unfortunately not all stiles are dog friendly.
There are a couple of busy roads to cross as well as a stretch of
quiet road that requires you to walk a reasonable way along the
road so please ensure that you take care and keep a close eye on
children and dogs. The
walk is not suitable for young children (in our opinion).
It can be very wet and muddy under foot so a good pair of walking
boots or wellies may be required.
There is no pen or pencil in any of the caches so please bring
your own

Secrets
Continue along the road keeping left when the road
divides. At the bottom
of the slope keep going straight and join the muddy track through
the woods.
