Geocache Description:

A guided meander (with a random element) around Capstone Farm Country Park.

Capstone Farm Country Park is a nice place for a walk and already has some normal caches.

Time for something different!

This Wherigo game will take you all over the country park collecting virtual items before leading you to a physical geocache. The shortest route is about 3.5 miles, but you get to choose your own route so you may walk further (allow two or three hours). There are some randomised elements, so the game will change each time it's played. If there is more than one of you, why not each have a go.

There are lots of marked paths, some may get muddy and there are some hills.

The initial coordinates are for the main car park where the Wherigo starts. There is a second car park but you'll have to walk to the main car park to start. Parking is free but both car parks are locked before sunset (16:30 in winter, 20:30 in summer).

This is my first attempt at a Wherigo so I've thrown a lot of different things in. Please avoid spoilers in your logs. (If there is something that works or doesn't work or you like or dislike please send a message through my profile page.)

The cache contains a logbook and pen and has room for small trackables and swaps. Please rehide it carefully as found.

To find out more about Wherigo type caches, visit Wherigo.com where you can discover what tools you need to run the cartridges. You will also need to download the Country Park Runaround cartridge to do this cache. The Pocket PC version (for smartphones) has been tested on WhereYouGo for Android and the Garmin version has been tested on an Oregon 450. You can download the cartridge of your choice by clicking on the links. This cartridge was written using URWIGO.
