Fred's Walk #Final (Manawatu) Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

stardust718: I am no longer able to maintain this series. Seven years ago, when these were placed, the walk way was largely just a bush track. It has now become a very popular walking trail. The hide location has become compromised.

Geocache Description:

Frederick Krull Reserve is a 1.6 km long track through Kelvin Grove from Roberts Line to James Line. There are 6 caches in this series plus the final. At each one you will need to collect a number that will form the co-ordinates for the final cache.


It is mostly a well formed limestone track however, there is a small section that is just grass (cache 5). After the final cache you can walk a short distance up James Line and return to your car by walking down Parnell Heights. This entire loop would be 3.8 km. There are many access points to this track you can park near however the intention is that you would walk the track in its entirety (hence the many caches close together), make it a family outing one afternoon and take a picnic.


To complete this puzzle cache you will need to have found the previous six caches in this series to gather the required information.

Fred's Walk #1 GC4687Z
Fred's Walk #2 GC46882
Fred's Walk #3 GC4688A
Fred's Walk #4 GC4688D
Fred's Walk #5 GC4688J
Fred's Walk #6 GC4688K
You can then continue a very short distance along the track from Fred's Walk #6 to the final destination where you can have a well deserved rest before heading back to the car. The final co-ordinates are:       South° A  B.C,          East° D  E.F
There is a new unregistered trackable for the FTF. You will need to BYOP.

From the track end you can walk a short distance up James line and then wander down Parnell Heights back to your car (if you parked at the suggested co-ordinates). While you are here you may consider completing the nearby cache Octaginal Retreat (GC2M15R).
