COVENTRY CANAL WALK
This cache is a well disguised nano, with just room for a log. You will need to bring a pen.
If you continue along Hodge Lane you will find your way back to the canal towpath, where the surroundings become a lot less urban and a bit more scenic.
This cache could easily be completed as a cache and dash.
For this series we've teamed up with Baddesley Bodgers to create a stretch of caches along the Coventry Canal from Fazeley, right the way through to Grendon. This series takes in a number of Kyla+JJ's Wander Round Fazeley Series and some of our own WPC series. There is plenty of opportunity for any others wanting to extend the route or to fill in any gaps.
Our particular stretch of the canal is quite urban in places and sometimes not that picturesque, especially in the winter months, although there are some nice spots along the way. It is also quite overlooked in places so some caches are well spaced out and some will require extreme stealth.
We’ve tried to set this part of the series with both cyclists and walkers in mind, so some gaps between caches are more than your usual 0.1 of a mile. This will give the cyclists chance to get up a bit of momentum.
We do come off the canal at a couple of points, for a change in scenery and, on one occasion, this does involve some steps, but is not too much of a problem, even with a bike, unless of course you ride a tandem, when it might be a bit tricky!
FTF - Congratulations to Gingernutter for being the first to find this cache.
A big well done also to the Highcroft Hunters for being the first to find all of the caches set by us in this series.
