Geocache Description:

A Traditional cache located on the grounds of Ottley's Plantation Inn on the Atlantic side of St. Kitts.  The grounds have a scenic view of the ocean and includes well manicured lawn and buildings. Includes log and pen and room for your TB's.

The cache is located at the base of 'The Tree'.  You will enter the trailhead just to the left of the Royal Palm Restaurant within the Inn's property.  The restaurant is nestled into the remaining stone walls of the plantation's old sugar factory.  It is a short 15 minute drive from the airport along the main road that circles the island.

The property is open to the geocaching public and the cache is maintained by the Innkeeper, Marty Lowell, who will be of any assistance needed.  There is no requirement to stay or dine on the property.  Enjoy the manicured lawns, towering beauty of cloud-capped Mt. Liamuiga and the rolling countryside down to the Atlantic Ocean.

The trail has steps down to the forest base and follows along a creek bed with a canopy of trees covering the sky.  After finding the cache you can follow the trail that will loop back close to the starting point or just return the way you came.  Total hike is less that 1/4 mile.

Small note on cache maintenance:
There is a local cache guardian who will assist.
