Muttlee333: have decided that after nearly eight years it is time to retire the Keyworth Cache Crawl. Thanks for the logs, and I hope the series brought pleasure to people over that time.

Geocache Description:

Keyworth Cache Crawl #10

This is number ten in the series.

Keyworth Cache Crawl #10

The Keyworth Cache Crawl is a series of 16 Caches based around a 7 mile approx. circular walk from Keyworth, out to Widmerpool, across to Wysall, and back to Keyworth. There are now other caches near to this route you could also pick up.

The walk can be done as a complete circle, or could be done in sections using the local bus services from Keyworth Square, which is near the first cache. (At the present time the 863 service serves both Widmerpool and Wysall,but with a very infrequent timetable since the bus services in the area were reviewed.)

The walk is mainly along public footpaths, with some sections of walking along roads. The footpaths are generally well signed, but I have included waypoints with the cache descriptions to assist. The paths are reasonably easy walking, although do cross farm land so can be quite muddy. Please make sure you keep dogs under control as there is livestock about, and don’t stray from the public footpaths; it is easy to wander into bulls fields!
Although the roads used are quite quiet, due care and attention will be needed, so I wouldn’t recommend the route for young children due to this.

Due to the nature of the walk, many of the caches aren’t suitable for users of wheelchairs or pushchairs. Some of the caches can be done as cache and dash finds. Please see the individual descriptions to see which can be. The series uses a variety of different cache types and sizes, so I’d recommend taking tweezers to help you!
The village car park is no longer free, but free parking can be found around the village, and if you time it right a nice food / drink stop half way round! (see waypoint on KCC12)

This Cache:

If coming along from KCC9 please take care walking along the road, there are no pavements along this bit of the route.
This cache could be done as a cache and dash, and would be accessable by a wheelchair user.
