Introduction
This is a series of 16 caches placed along a circular walk. This walk starts off on pavement but then goes onto public footpaths and bridleways, and for a few small segments it runs along minor roads. There is also the possibility of taking in a number of other caches along the route. Caches are traditional with not that much effort required.
Due to the terrain it is not suitable for pushchairs - unless it is very dry and even then there are a couple of stiles that will need to be traversed. This walk is suitable for dogs although some fields will require dogs to be on leads.
The entire route is 5 miles and can be walked in about 2.5 hours; however with caching time it will take longer. I would allow 3.5 hours to be safe! Please be aware, particularly in the winter, this walk can get very muddy.
There is a pub at the start (and finish) of the route along with a couple of shops; there is also a pub approximately half way around.
