Geocache Description:

The Trefforest Trekker

A journey which takes you through a pleasant 3 mile walk over the hills above Trefforest, over to Church Village, Tonteg and back. Expect some great views across the valleys as you endeavor to tackle a selection of interesting Geocaches!

This was previously 'A Stones Throw' and 'High Life'

The Series:

Terrain varies from concrete roads, sometimes muddy country paths, fields and pavements. There are some steep hills along the way. Please see Difficulty/Terrain ratings for each cache. If you are doing the whole series the trek should take around 1 to 2 hours to complete depending on your pace.

All these caches can be done as standalone or in order. We suggest you start at number 1 but it's up to you. We hope you enjoy the trail!

Location:

Cache is placed near a metal stile. Please be careful of traffic. It's a relatively quiet road but please take care.

Cache Details:

Cache is a micro. Please replace the cache as found. There is no pen/cil in this cache so please bring your own.

Directions:

Approaching anticlockwise: From 'Sheep Gate' head along road taking care of traffic.
Approaching clockwise: Follow the road up from 'Telegraph Pole'.
