Geocache Description:

Summary
The second wave of the Blackrock Power Trail continues the journey, this time heading south-east of Blackrock Village and along the Seapoint seafront in the surrounds of the Martello Tower. Cache 13 is at a rarely-visited part of the Salthill Wall – and very isolated.

The Blackrock Power Trail Series (BRPT)
The series started its life in Idrone Terrace on Dublin Bay behind Blackrock Village and has now spread both north-west and south-east from the original Cache.  Caches range from an easy 1/1 D/T through to the hardest being a 3/4.

The rules of Geocaching are such that no cache can be within 160 metres (0.1 miles or 528 feet) of another cache... so you will find that the caches in this series are generally about 200 metres apart from each other.  There are also some other caches along the route that you may want to pick up as you go.

The Cache
The 13th cache in the BRPT series is a magnetic keyhide box that will take you right around beyond the end of Salthill Park and out around the small wave-break wall.   This is a lonely walk (for good reasons), providing real isolation, and gets you rather close to the water’s edge.  There is quite a bit of really good graffiti-art on the walls – so stop and take a look.   And watch your footing.
 
Note:  you can make your way around the metal fence and on to BRPT Cache #14 – but be careful… OR, you can double-back on yourself through the park.
 

Good hunting!
