Geocache Description:


This cache is hidden in the beautiful old-growth forest of the Brenner-Penfield Macungie Mountain Preserve, accessible from both the Reimert Memorial Bird Haven and Brenner-Penfield Macungie Mountain Preserve trailheads. The towering trees here are a testament to the old forest, creating a canopy high above that adds to the wonder of the hike.

The hike itself is approximately a mile or two round trip (depending on approach and trails you choose to follow, with a decent elevation change and rocky terrain, offering a solid workout. Along the way, you may spot deer and other wildlife, and in the right season, enjoy a view of Macungie Borough through the trees from Sheep Rock. The cache lies roughly between two iconic landmarks: "The Throne" and "Sheep Rock," making this adventure rewarding from any direction.

Be sure to bring sturdy shoes and be prepared for the elevation, but the surrounding nature and peaceful solitude make the challenge worthwhile.
