Twelfth in the series, here the canal path is all that separates the River Frome and the Canal.7/6/12 this is a replacement cache after the original went missing..You are now looking for a camo'd screw top vit bottle., room for sml swaps or geo coins. It's very close to the original co-ords if stuck check out the updated hint.. High Muggle area, so stealth is required, please replace carefully else it may take another swim in the river..
This series of caches takes you along the Thames and Severn Canal towpath, now used as a long distance public footpath, through the picturesque Golden Valley to the famous Sapperton Tunnel. The footpath is flanked by the canal one side and the river Frome on the other side the walk is roughly 4 km in length. (One way)Whilst setting the caches today I saw a plethora of nature from new born lambs, deer, ducks heaps of squirrels and the odd train! As with all old canal towpaths there are many disused Locks some of which are very deep therefore children and dogs need close supervision in areas. The series can be completed from either direction; however, due to the narrow roads around Chalford, parking is easier at the Old Daneway Basin, now a local pub car park! co-ords N 51° 43.750 W 2° 5.380 or to make it easy for youngsters and elderly leave a car both ends! Alternatively you could do the series in sections, check the local Os map for guidance. It works in well with other local caches such as the Air Shaft series, Sapperton Cats series and Zero 5 the later takes you right up to the Daneway portal of the Sapperton canal tunnel To keep the younger members motivated the caches have been set at frequent intervals. More information regarding the history and future plans for the canal can be found at http://www.cotswoldcanals.com
