Geocache Description:

This cache is a road trip, searching for QR codes.

  See related web page to read about the Kop Hill Climb


Very near the published coordinates is a QR code. Scan it, and reveal the coordinates. Then head up Kop Hill to experience the famous Kop Hill Climb, and head to your first set of coordinates, find the QR, and then head off to the next etc. The coordinates are for the centre of road junctions, the QR codes are very easy to find and nearby, but you won't find them using the GPS!

The route is on fairly, and very quiet minor roads, and parking is available at all waypoints

The final where the cache is located, is a medium, sometimes a bit muddy walk from the road where there is parking available.

This is designed to be a road trip, approx 13 miles, so best done with a car, motorcycle or bicycle. It can be walked, but will take a long time! The T2 rating is based on the walk to the cache from the parking. Significantly up this rating if cycling or walking the route.

To complete this cache, you will need a QR code reader. These can be downloaded as an app to most smartphones. It's probably worth downloading more than one, as some apps are a load of rubbish and don't work. It would also be a good idea to test the app on QR codes before setting off. It might also be worth taking a torch in case of dull weather. All being well, you should end up having a nice potter along some quiet country lanes, to maybe places you have never been to before, and a 1.2 mile round trip walk to the cache location along one of the UK's largest scheduled ancient monuments. Keep an eye out for pheasants and deer. Enjoy! :)
