Geocache Description:

This is 5. Parnholt (Another new addition to the Parnholt series) which is a Letterbox - Hybrid cache, containing a rubber stamp for you to stamp your logbook with.

(It is at the published co-ordinates)

Please leave the stamp inside the cache for others to enjoy smiley


The Parnholt series on an off-road loop (walk or ride) of just over 7 miles through some fabulous Hampshire countryside (see 1. Parnholt (GC3PXNE)for full details of the series). To find the bonus cache at the end, you need to collect the numbers allocated to letters in some of the cache logbooks on the Parnholt loop (1. to 19.) - not all caches have bonus clues. BYO pen.

Here is a suggested route, which shows other caches you can bag on the way round:

Farley Hard (GCXR86)
Then do Parnholt loop 1 to 4
A quick there and back to bag Up, up and away (GC3DTKK)
If you're up for a further extension then continue on to Church Micro 4878...Farley Chamberlayne (GC4W7TD)
Then backtrack for Parnholt 5 to 13
On the way to Parnholt 14 you can do Chilihouse's Battle of Britain (GC23Q3X)
Then it's Parnholt 14 to 17
You can bag this large one, CWC #22 - Woah thats big.. (GC5568C) on route to 18 and 19....
After which, visit the 'horse monument' listed on the bonus page and do the virtual Farley Mount trigpoint cache Ye Ole Survey Monuments- YSM045 Farley Mount (GC45CC)
Finally, there's the bonus cache Parnholt Bonus (GC3PXX3)
Please replace all caches as found and log any interesting aspects/photos of your walk round.
