Geocache Description:

The Shrewsbury Legends Wherigo takes you on a tour from Shrewsbury Abbey and up into this beautiful town.  You are looking for 'the cache', but you will need to visit a number of places in the town, seeking help from the characters who pop up along the way in order to gain the final coordinates.


The starting point is Shrewsbury Abbey. The walk itself takes around an hour, but it is easy to get distracted by the shops, cafes, churches, museums and charm of this town. There is a lot to enjoy in the town itself, and a whole day can easily be spent exploring it. A number of other caches, of varying types, can be found in the town too.

The co-ordinates at the top of the page are for suggested parking just by the Abbey. There is plenty of other parking available in the town.

We tested the cartridge on an iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 and compiled the cartridge using Earwigo.


The Wherigo Cartridge

To complete this Wherigo you will need to have a compatible device. Navigate to the Wherigo website and download the cartridge. Follow the trail around the town and you will get to the final cache.

iPhone users can download the Wherigo player from the App Store (Search for 'Wherigo').

Android users can download WhereYouGo from Google Play.

The Cache

The Wherigo adventure leads you to a final physical geocache. You need to sign the logbook in this in order to claim a find.

Please be extremely stealthy at the final location and make sure you hide the cache well.
