Geocache Description:

This is our first cache and we've hidden it in our favourite part of the New Forest. The clearings around the cache location are full of orchids in late spring and summer – hence the name.

It’s a nice easy walk but can get a bit wet in the winter. You can get to the cache by walking through the woods, but we prefer to follow the path past the cricket pitch, then walk along the long clearing following the small stream.

Start by parking at Busketts Lawn, a New Forest car park:
N 50 ° 53.947
W 001 ° 33.512
OS co-ordinates: SU3111

The cache container is a plastic 1 litre capacity box with a secure waterproof ‘click lock’ type lid. Please replace it just as you found it.

"Cache placed in accordance with the GAGB New Forest guidelines. Please note there is no night caching allowed in the New Forest".
