Geocache Description:


Parliament Hill is a great viewpoint of central London and Highgate.  Legend has it that Guy Fawkes planned to watch the destruction of Parliament from here on 5 November 1605 - we now celebrate Bonfire Night on 5 November to commemorate this.  Nowadays enjoy the view and on breezy days it's a great place to fly a kite - or watch others flying them.  

Have a walk around and enjoy Hampstead Heath.  Pretty pleasant in any direction though I particularly recommend heading north west towards Kenwood.  I've added a couple of water-based waypoints to consider for your enjoyment: a large children's paddling pool and a bathing pond.

How to log the cache:

  • Submit a log entry with a photo of the view with some personal item in the foreground (could be yourself, your GPS, your mascot etc).  Bonus marks for being Guy Fawkes themed.
  • There are many benches up here which can often be occupied making it hard to read the inscriptions.  For one bench the main dedication remains readable whilst occupied - go to this form and enter who this bench is dedicated to along with your geocaching username.  Do not put this answer in your log.

If you don't carry out these actions (photo in log and bench dedication in form) then your log may be deleted.
