The Shenley Loop series, is a series of 11 caches plus bonus around the outskirts of the Porters Park development. Find the clues in the caches and work out the puzzle to help you find the bonus.
Many thanks to The land owners for allowing these series of caches.
The trail begins and ends at the car park next door to the well known supermarket. Parking is free here.
The trail has been designed with families and dogs in mind. Be warned, in the Winter, parts of the trail are exceptionally muddy and wet. Wellies are a must in Winter but normal shoes can be worn at other times.
The series has been designed in a way that even if a cache is missing or you get a DNF, you should still be able to go for the bonus as the clues are repeated.
The whole trail is about 3.5km and can be done in about 1 to 1.5 hours.
The route broadly, but not exactly, follows the 'shenley Circular Route # 1' and here is a link for that map. http://www.shenleypark.co.uk/Material%20for%20web%20site/Page%20C%20-%20Walks%20in%20and%20around%20Shenley%20Park/shenley_park_walks.pdf Look for the red arrows with the number 1.
PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THE CLUE WHICH CAN BE FOUND IN EACH CACHE
None of the caches contain a pen, so bring your own.
Most of the caches are fairly easy, designed for young cachers but there are a couple of tricky ones too.
YOU ARE WARNED ABOUT THE MUD IN WINTER, IN PARTICULAR AS YOU APPROACH CACHE #6 AND #7!!
Really hope you enjoy the series. The Gaffer!
The first cache is a small box.
