Geocache Description:



 

This Virtual brings you to the iconic Canadian Flag flower bed adorning the side of a hill in West Riverside Park Belleville. The hill faces Hwy 401.  The display is on the south side of Hwy 401, between Hwy 62 and Hwy 37.

The Town of Belleville plants approximately 32,000 begonias, including 20,500 Red Leaf Begonias and 11.500 White Begonias each year to create the Canadian Flag display. 

The flowers creating the Canadian Flag will only be visible during the growing season. With photos being posted year round in the gallery we will be able to witness the transformation over time.

 

West Riverside Park also has many facilities for the traveler: 

  • Multi-Use Trails
  • Greenspace
  • Washrooms (seasonal)
  • Playground
  • Picnic Sites (Valley and Forest)
  • Picnic Tables
  • Covered Pavillion

 

Logging Requirements

1. Provide a photo of yourself (you do not have to show your face), or a thumbs up, or a personal item at the posted coordinates with the hill and the floral Canadian Flag area in the background.  Post your photo with your log.

2. To confirm you were at the location you must message us the answers to this question. At the posted coordinates you will find a small silver tag imbedded in a large light pole. Message us the last digit for HT., the CLASS, and the last digit for YR. Do not post your answer in your log.
