Geocache Description:

A steady walk of about a mile; It lets you to take in some of the breathtaking views. Note: The difficulty for each of the caches is on an individual basis. The terrain takes into account the whole estate and all caches involved. Suggested parking is in the National Trust car park. There is a small parking fee for anyone not showing their NT members badge.


The National Trust looks after and maintains over 700 miles of coastline. There are a further 25 miles of footpaths to explore inland through historic meadows and woodland.The South West Coast Path runs through the Golden Cap estate offering panoramic cliff top views the whole time.Stonebarrow Hill is to the east of Charmouth, it overlooks Lyme Regis, Charmouth and Golden Cap.

Stonebarrow hill scales to 140 meters. The Stonebarrow cliffs are an interest to geologists because of the life forms found in the cliffs. The cliffs are Jurassic, getting younger the further east you go.

You are looking for a medium sized clip top box which contains log book, pencil and tradable goodies. The cache can be found by the Biggest tree of the lot near the old hedge bank. Warning; GPS units can start being funny as lots of tree cover. Please disguise well when finished with the cache. If you start your search from the interpretation panel by the track, you should find the easy route in to the cache.

This Geocache can be combined with the caches below to make a route along the top of the hill which should take you about two hours. Bring a picnic if you want to make a day of it!
