Geocache Description:


This is one of eight caches hidden along the trail of about 1.5 miles which starts at the wildlife pond by the car park. Make your way through pleasant mixed woodland, winding your way down to the Skelbo burn where you will find remains of a 1940s pump house. This once supplied the surrounding farms with water.

 

Look out for woodland creatures carved to the designs of local school children.

 

You will also pass the site of a 2000 year old broch, which forms a link in the chain of strongholds along the coast.

You are looking for a hanging camo tube.
