This virtual cache marks the end... or the beginning.. of the John Muir Way, one of Scotland's Great Trails.
The John Muir Way provides walkers and cyclists a unique journey through Scotland’s landscapes, history and heritage. Crossing central Scotland coast to coast in 134 miles, it links Helensburgh in the west with Dunbar in the east - birthplace of America's 'father of national parks' John Muir.
The route symbolically passes through Scotland's own first national park, Loch Lomond & The Trossachs, and offers a chance to connect with nature, taking advantage of the green spaces that link our coasts, villages, towns and even the capital city.
The John Muir Way terminus is located at the waterfront in Helensburgh, marked by a seat made from Scottish oak and a circular stone plinth with engraved footprints and a John Muir quote. To claim this cache, take a photograph of your feet (or shoes) on the terminus and submit along with your log entry.
You can find out more about the entire John Muir Way by visiting johnmuirway.org.
