Geocache Description:

Footpath 185 links Bowers Gifford from St Margarets Church to Benfleet Railway station.

This series is our first placed and we hope to encourage others to enjoy the walk through the fields as we have with our children and geodog.


The route can be completed in around 1 and a half hours being approximately 4.5 miles in total. This is over mixed terrain from tarmac path to grass and at times alongside the creek which at times can be both muddy & wet and slippery under foot choose your tides well.

Please ensure you wear sturdy footwear.
 

Now you can take the high or low road to this one depending on the state of the tide, but the path can be wet !

 

Part of the GHQ Defensive Line

 

During the walk you will take in views across Bowers Marsh currently being preserved as a wetlands project and Nature Reserve.

There is a possibility that with the guidance and assistance of the custodians that there may be an extention or trail through the new nature reserve but until then please do not place any cache without their permission.

Dogs are permitted and I often walk here with my own, but do ensure that any dog is kept under control and away from any livestock/wildlife(there is the possibility of cattle grazing/livstock and nesting birds etc. within the reserve).


This is a micro so need your own pen.

"YOU DO NOT NEED TO DISMANTLE ANYTHING SO NO NEED TO REMOVE ANY BRICKS ETC."

Once you have found head along the right side of the metal fence on your way to the next Cache.

 

This is a replacement for the original cache GC2Q48H
