Geocache Description:

Part of a circular wildlife walk of eleven caches across the Burston wetlands and farmland and Trent and Mersey Canal known as the Aston-to-Burston trail. The distance is around 3 miles across relatively flat ground. This is a great walk which is usually quiet and muggle free. It can be very muddy so walking boots or wellies are recommended. Parking can be found at Aston Marina in Stone or in Burston. There is a map showing the walk route below.


Not far from this geocache location on the opposite side of the canal is a fantastic long grass meadow with large trees around the edges. Occassionally little owls can be seen perched on these trees waiting to pounce on voles in the fields. Little owls hunt in the daytime so are easier to see than most British owl species however they are very shy and you have to be quiet as you approach the field or they will fly away before you get a good look.

The geocache is a small camouflaged bison container hung at GZ.

Congratulations Russe11 on the First to Find!
