The revitalised Altnew series now comprises 8 caches placed on a circular walk, which starts in Altofts, touches on the edge of the historic Newlands estate and offers glimpses of Normanton, Wakefield and even Emley Moor mast on a clear day. Numbers 3-6 are the original, with the other 4 being new caches. Street parking is available near Altnew 1 but please be considerate.
The whole walk should take between 60 to 75 minutes and is virtually all a mixture of clearly defined field paths and old roads. These can become very muddy in wet conditions and walking boots are recommended. Unfortunately, it is not really suitable for pushchairs.
This cache, Altnew 5, is now a film pot. Please replace it as you find it. Can you see Emley Moor mast?
