Geocache Description:


West Midlands 2022

Apedale is a 454 acre country park. Formerly an open cast mine, the area has now been turned into this vast country park, with a mix of open areas and woodland. With varied terrain, and some wide, hardstanding paths the park provides trails for everyone. The lower visitors’ centre includes a café, mine tours and a steam train, whilst the upper visitors’ centre focusses on the environment.

Some areas of Apedale are conservation areas, other areas are liable to sudden ground movement because of the mine workings, therefore it is imperative that you do not cross any fences, or stray from the paths.

When we were placing these caches we spotted a metal thing in the enclosure. However we have no idea what it is, or what the enclosure is.

So if you have any ideas, please post them in your log!

For more information on the West Midlands 2022 event, August 1-8 2022, visit our website, or join us on social media on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Stay with us all week for the best experience!
