Powis Castle - Deer Traditional Cache

This is one of a series of five caches placed in the grounds of Powis Castle and the deer park, as managed by the National Trust. The caches include traditional and multicache locations; and the names reflect animals that you may encounter. Placed with the kind permission of Dave Swanton, Garden Operations Manager, Powis Castle.

This is a simple traditional cache placed at the northern end of the section of the deer park managed by the National Trust. DO NOT park near the cache location, continue to the car park and walk back. Access to the deer park is available on foot from Welshpool - check the access times at the gate in town. Please be advised that ticks are prevalent within the Powis Castle deer park, especially during the current summer (2014). The Cache Owner encountered three ticks on the last maintenance check. Regular checks are made on these ticks, there has been no evidence of any Powis Castle ticks carrying Lyme Disease. Check yourselves carefully.

Cache location gives good view of the surrounding deer park - you may be lucky enough to spot some from here.
