This is our second series of caches around the outskirts of Ottery St Mary.
This is a circular route of about 11 km (7 miles) on very quiet lanes and footpaths (as with most of Devon it can become muddy in winter). There are two steep'ish sections but these are on roads. There are a couple of caches where you may have scale a bank or two but nothing severe.
Some of the caches are under tree cover so coordinates may be tricky in summer.
There are some fantastic views across the otter valley and further onto Dartmoor, plus after 2/3rds of the route you will pass a farm shop where you can get refreshments.
It is recommended to complete this route starting at Cache number one otherwise there will be some backtracking.
These Caches are all varied and we have tried to be a bit adventurous on a couple, please be gentle with these. A few cahce's will be hard to open when found , some include puzzles and one may require 'some' of you to take something home to practice. All will be come clear! There are NO magnetic nano's or film containers but you would benefit from tweezers on a couple.
There will be some clues but not to many. Hope you enjoy the route.
PS you will need to bring a torch for one of the caches but I guess most of you will have one on your phones.
Congratulations to........

FTF complete series in a day 'Ky Devas' & 'Dartmoor deliverer'
This first cache should be easy to find but please beware of the dog walking muggles and the muggles in their allotments, they can be nosey.
