Geocache Description:


The headline coordinates are for ideal parking. This parking is usually Pay and Display but is free during Covid (make sure you get a free ticket).  Other parking options are given on this page.

The cache is not at the posted coordinates. The actual coordinates will be provided when you have finished the Adventure Lab "Cotswold Corsham". You need the Adventure Lab App to run the Cotswold Corsham Adventure and a link to this Adventure is here

https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/TheWombles.

The five stages of the Adventure and the physical bonus are arranged in a one mile circular walk. They can be completed in less than 30 minutes but you you can choose to spend more time at the interesting places on the circuit.

The coordinates and hint for this physical cache will be revealed in one of the stages of the Adventure Lab. Once you have completed all sections of the Adventure, open the “View Journal” section of the Adventure to get the coordinates and hint. If you want to enter the coordinates in the official geocaching app, go to this cache top menu, scroll down to “waypoints” and ”enter a new waypoint”.

This Adventure is on flat, hard surfaces until the last 10m before the cache.  Dogs on leads will be welcome.  There is traffic nearby in several places so pay careful attention to small children.  Some parts of this trail are not wheelchair friendly, for example there are two kissing gates.

Parking options are shown in the waypoints below. The terrain reflects the walk around the Adventure and finding this physical cache. Please leave any feedback or comments about the Adventure on this page.

The final is under tree cover.  I had variable GPS reception on different visits (despite long averaging and Differential GPS reception) so I have given a precise hint in the Adventure.

When you replace the cache, please insert the cap first and ensure that it is covered so that it is hidden from view.

Whilst I was setting this Adventure, I met BoldFont who was also planning an Adventure here but he kindly agreed that this could go ahead. Many thanks.
