Keele University is situated in 240 hectares (600 acres) of landscaped grounds, the woods, grounds and lakes have lovely walks open to all, the cache is hidden just off of of the many paths. The campus is open all year round, however there are parking charges daytime Monday to Friday and, during term time, parking space is very restricted.
Following the outbreak (Phytophthora ramorum - commonly known as “Sudden Oak Death”) significant forestry work has taken place to remove infected trees and plants, this main area of woodland in once again open to visitors.
A good guide to walks can be found below
