Geocache Description:

The Tinkers' Heart is a small arrangement of white quartz stones embedded in the ground at the junction between the road to Strachur (A815) and Hell’s Glen (B839) in Argyllshire.

For years it has stood as a testimony to the survival of Scotland’s Travelling people. A sacred place where couples wed, babies were christened and the dead blessed. In 1872 there is proof of two local people getting married there.


Admire the beautiful views of Loch Fyne across to Inveraray and beyond (on a nice day). Parking is available close to GZ but keep hold of young children as traffic moves very fast here.

The cache is a rectangular tube, suitable for small trackables, please return this cache to the exact place that you found it, be careful of the barbed wire while searching !
