Geocache Description:


4 miles south of Cambridge along the appropriately named Hills Road (A1307) you come to the Gog Magog Hills where you will find an ancient hill fort dating back to the Iron Age. This is the location for Wandlebury Country Park, owned and managed by Cambridge Past, Present and Future. link

By Bus: Take the green Park & Ride Bus to the Babraham Road terminus, and walk up the hill (1.5 miles). Or Stagecoach 13/13A/X13 service (Cambridge-Haverhill)

By Cycle: Follow the A1307 out of Cambridge. There is a cycle lane or off-road path all of the way out. There are secure cycle racks in the car park. No cycling in the Park, please.

By Car: The car park is signposted off the A1307. There is a £3 parking fee.

This is the third geocache based on the "Past, Present, Future" theme.
This cache looks a century into the future when the area known as Clarks' Corner will have matured.
The Woodland Trust acquired this 9 acre site in 1998. The newly planted trees around the edges are beech, ash and lime, which are the dominant species in the area. In 100 years the area will resemble the rest of Wandlebury which is mainly mature beech trees.

The cache is a camouflaged 300ml clip lock container which only has room for small swaps.
