Geocache Description:

This is a series of caches starting in Thrapston and taking in the old railway line down to Ringstead before heading back via Denford across footpaths. It is almost all 'off road'.


This walk is circular and takes about 2-3 hours. There are cafes in Thrapston and Ringstead and pubs too. Beware nettles in Summer although being a wimp, I've tried to put most higher up!

Take a pen: some are small and they are of varying types. The title of the cache gives a clue for what you’re looking for.

I've managed to list 7 and 8 the wrong way round

Sizeable pot: FTF badge, trackable, marbles, bouncy ball, squidgey. Will fit most items.

Here this trail veers off to Ringstead but if you continue down for 50 yards, you can do Mind the Gap if you're small and not an arachnophobe!

The easiest path up on the bridge is nearest to Mind the Gap, saves you scrambling up a steep bit.
