Geocache Description:

A multi-cache which begins in Gideon's Green and takes you along the Loughshore Cycle Path towards Belfast. The total walk is about two miles along a level tarmacked path.


The coordinates above lead you to a commemorative stone in Gideon's Green, where you can read a little bit about the history of the park. On the stone there is a date stating the year in which the park was given the name Gideon's Green. Call this ABCD.

The second set of coordinates leads you to an information board, detailing some of the birds that can be seen from this viewing point. Let the number of different types of birds described on the board equal E, and the number of types of birds which list worms or lugworms as their food equal F.

The walk to the second stage takes you under the motorway and out onto the shores of Belfast Lough. This path is very popular with walkers, with and without their dogs, joggers and cyclists. It also forms part of the Belfast Marathon route. It makes for a very pleasant walk with views of the ferries coming and going up the lough and the varied bird-life.

To determine the coordinates of the final location, use the values of the letters above.

N 54 3B.(D-B)FD

W 5 54.E(E-A)(C+A)
