Geocache Description:


This series of 7 caches is for all the Harry Potter fans out there; who like us, are a bit sad that it’s now all over.

It doesn’t matter if you are not a Harry Potter fan, as all the puzzles can be completed without any in-depth knowledge. Most puzzles should be solvable by young fans – with the exception of #7 which will need a bit of maths knowledge.

Once solved, the caches make a circular walk of about 3 miles, and 2 church micros can be picked up on the way round. Parts of the walk can be muddy (especially between 5 and 6). Bring a pen and tweezers.
