Geocache Description:


This is the second in a series of caches intended to repopulate Belmont Park in east Belfast, where there used to be several caches but most are now archived.

Belmont Park is a small park running between Circular Road, Cairnburn Road and Old Holywood Road in east Belfast, formally opened in the 1980s (see the stone by the Old Holywood Road entrance). It is bisected by the A55 dual carriageway with two bridges over the road to link the two halves of the park. It's a popular dog walking location, and also has a children's play area and some forest paths.

For caching purposes, there is parking at the Circular Road entrance (CIYMS) and a smaller car park at the Old Holywood Road entrance. Cycling cachers can also get there via either of these two entrances or on the A55 cycle path, but note that the park is a bit too steep in places to cycle through easily!

The cache

Continue along the endless rolling path into leaves, logs and roughage. This cache is a disguised magnetic micro/nano cache in a quiet corner of the park. Note that although GZ is not on the main path, it's in an area sometimes used by dog walkers, so please use stealth as required! (As others have noted in the logs, it's pretty brambly/thorny so take care - I got badly scratched hiding it!)
