Geocache Description:



This Cache is the 2nd of 7 and can be combined with the caches below to make a circular route around the southern flank of Stonebarrow and Chardown Hills taking in a short section of the South West Coast Path. See: Westhay Wander - 1 (GC7RMMA) for full details about parking and the route.


The part of the estate you are walking around was gifted to the Trust in 1961. The 274 acres, comprising Westhay Farm and most of Stonebarrow Hill were purchased at auction by Mrs W.E. Morland and gifted to the Trust in memory of her late husband so that it could be preserved as coastal agricultural land.

This cache combines with the caches below to make a circular route. The complete walk is about 4 miles (7Km), includes one steep descent and finishes on a steady climb up from Westhay to Cain’s Folly. Geodogs are welcome but please keep them under close control as you may encounter grazing animals, ground nesting birds or other fauna. As it is close to Upcot Farm there may be cows in calf or with young calves in this field. If there are please give them plenty of space and keep any geodogs on a short lead.

Note: The difficulty for each of the caches is on an individual basis. The Terrain takes into account the whole route and all caches involved. In winter sections of the route can be muddy, especially in gateways. You will need a pen for the micro-caches and to find the bonus you will need to collect the clues along the way, don’t worry there is a decode sheet in Westhay Wander – 6 (GC7RMP7) The clues are pictograms so unless you have a photographic memory you will need a way to record them as you find them..

The cache is a bison type micro, please ensure you have a pen or pencil.

The other caches in this series are:
Westhay Wander - 1 (GC7RMMA)
Westhay Wander - 3 (GC7RMN6)
Westhay Wander - 4 (GC7RMNE)

Enjoy walking on the Estate and Happy Caching.
