Geocache Description:

Bibaloe Glen is a very small glen, which is more of a walk along a stream from Molly Quirk's Glen.

The pleasant streamside pathway, also known as Bibaloe Walk, was formed when the Douglas to Laxey Road was built in the 1800's,severing it from Bibaloe Farm of which is was once a part.

It is possible to park near to the cache but as it is a bus stop at the end of a farm lane on a busy road, it is much better to park at the given co-ordinates and enjoy the short stroll through the glen.

Please be aware that the end of the walk emerges onto a busy road so it is advisable to put geohounds on leads and keep a close eye on small cachers.

The cache is a 35mm film canister sized container which contains a log book, mini pencil and a 'FTF' badge for the first to find.

Whilst in the area why not try visiting two nearby cache's in the lovely Molly Quirk's Glen 'Molly put the kettle on' and 'Visit Molly Quirks glen', you may even catch sight of Molly herself. The glen is reputedly named after a woman, Molly Quirk, who was known locally to have quite a lot of money and who was robbed and murdered in this glen. This tale naturally gives rise to sightings of her ghost, which is said to wander the glen.
