Easy access along abandoned railway bed which is now the Cataraqui Trail, which is a section of the TransCanada Trail. A picturesque spot where the railway bridge crosses Otter Creek. Cache near railway bed with elevation of 127m. Best to park where Kelly Road crosses the railway bed. Watch for the odd thorn near the cache.
Cache is a small camouflaged container with a variety of items enclosed.
The Napanee, Tamworth and Quebec Railway was launched in 1879 to connect the Bay of Quinte to the Ottawa Valley. Developed in stages by several railway companies, the line reached Ottawa in 1913. The last Canadian National train ran in 1979 and in 1997 CN donated most of the rail bed to the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority.
The thriving railway was a lifeline connecting mining, farming and logging communities between Napanee and Smiths Falls a century ago.
