Located in Fernwood Botanical Gardens and Nature Preserve
along the beautiful St. Joseph River. Since there are Visitor Fees
(see below), take time to hike the other numerous trails and
gardens, take a break with visits to the Nature Center and Gallery
Exhibits and if your present at lunch time you can bring your own
picnic or select something from the cafe. Please make sure you
pick up a map of the grounds and follow Fernwood's no off trail
hiking rules.
Parking is only allowed at the Mary Plym Visitor Center.
Please enter the grounds through this entrance before starting your
search for all Fernwood caches.
Bring a pen or pencil as you will need one for several of
Fernwood’s caches. This set of caches has been placed with
Fernwood staff approval and allows visitors to explore the numerous
trails at Fernwood. No bushwhacking or leaving the trail is

thought.

well.
