Geocache Description:

This is the eleventh cache in the Daccombe Ramble series - now going downhill, Pitland Road.
 

PLEASE TAKE GREAT CARE WHEN CROSSING THE BUSY ROAD TOWARDS THIS CACHE. 


Turn right out of Ridge Road and then go down hill almost opposite (sign for campsite), called Pitland Road.

Daccombe Ramble Circular Walk series:

 
These caches have been designed as a circular walk or can be combined with my other circular as a figure of 8. There are steep hills, muddy footpaths and country lanes involved - most areas are not really suitable for cache and dash as the roads are single width and steep hills.
You can park in Daccombe area if you are only completing this circle, otherwise parking in Cassiobury Way area is the best place for the whole 25 caches.
 
The lanes are country lanes in a farming area so do expect some mud in areas and the footpath is currently very muddy with big puddles, so wellies or gaiters are a must. They are steep in areas but then they have some fantastic views.
 
PLEASE take care when crossing the busy road at 2 points along the way. You are only on it for a very short time but it is busy at certain times of the day. Also, remember that vehicles do use these lanes occasionally so care must be taken.
Dogs can be taken on this walk on a lead.

PLEASE NOTE: Tweezers or extraction tool required
Halfway down the hill
