Geocache Description:

The Wanted series takes you on a scenic walk through this part of the Peak District. There are a variety of different hides and containers, although none are too difficult to find. Please be careful with the containers when handling them, so that you don't break them, and please re-hide them carefully so that they're not discovered.


The cache

This cache is hidden in the bush. Please be careful when opening the container, and when replacing the cache.

About the series

This is a series of 27 caches, set on a walk of approx 3.5 - 4 miles. It starts in Sparrowpit, taking you along a public footpath to Rushup Edge, then back to a road and down to Bagshaw, from where there is a steady climb back to Sparrowpit.

The series is set as a fairly easy walk, with the first half along public footpaths, and the second half along minor back roads. There are a couple of stiles along the way, and some of the footpaths can be a bit muddy in places. Please be careful along the roads, because although they are quite quiet, they are used, and they are narrow in places.

None of the caches are in dry stone walls, so please do not look in them.

There are good views from various points along the walk, and on a clear day you can see for a few miles. Photos taken along the way are always appreciated, but please do not post photos of any of the more unusual caches. Any photos showing these containers will be deleted, as I don't want to spoilt it for others who come afterwards.

Please bring your own pen or pencil, because there aren't any in the caches, and you do need to sign the logs to claim the finds. Additionally, some of the caches may require tweezers. Parking co-ordinates are shown as waypoints on #1.
