Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted co-ordinates (though you can park here) but is less than a mile away. The posted co-ordinates used to have a viewpoint from where the sunset could be seen, but tree growth over the years has obscured the view.

 

The photograph shows the orange glow of the sun setting over the Malvern Hills, from a viewpoint on Cleeve Hill. Trees frame the setting sun on either side.

 

I've lived in Cheltenham for many years but never took the time to watch the sun go down over the hills to the west. This summer we happened to drive home over Cleeve Hill at the right time to catch the sunset. It was quite a special sight, which deserves to be shared. The final location wasn't where this photo was taken from, but is a little more scenic and has great views.
