Geocache Description:

Nano magnetic cache.

Easily accessible but Dalmuir can be a very busy park but there is a nearby seat you can wait/fill in the cache.

Due to a spate of Nano being removed I have had to move it higher up with the Owls. If shorter people can see it feel free to log it. You used to be able to get a refreshing drink at this location too,



Dalmuir Park was established in 1906 from the former landscape of Dalmuir House to provide the local community with an essential green space in what was a heavily industrial area. Built on a hill top, the park still reflects its 18th-century heritage: the fountain and former bandstand were constructed in 1907 and turned the park into the focal point of social activity including a number of political rallies between 1945 and 1963.

The park sits in a secluded location just north of Dumbarton Road in an area of within the former village of Dalmuir, now part of Clydebank. It is a large park located on a south - facing hillside bounded to the west by the Duntocher Burn and to the north by the fine 18-hole Dalmuir Municipal Golf Course.

Spread over seven hectares the park has an established footpath system from which panoramic views can seen of the surrounding landscape. There are established woodlands;  seasonal floral displays and Herbaceous and Ornamental shrub planting; childrens' play facility catering for a wide range of age groups; bowling greens; weir and sluice gates with managed water courses; a pond and waterside walk.
