Geocache Description:


This cache is the first of a series of thirty-two caches hidden on the south side of Kings Wood. It's a walk of about six miles and should take you about three hours.

The phone signal isn't good. You are advised to download all cache details before you leave home, and do your logging when you get back.

All are placed in accordance with the formal Landowner agreement between Geocaching and the Forestry Commission. As part of that agreement all caches has been placed either on the path, or not more than a step or two off of the paths. Please follow the paths from cache to cache and do not go marching through the trees

 

 

You can’t mistake where the paths go – most of them are at least a yard wide at the narrowest point

It can get a tad muddy in places…

NO CACHES ARE AT THE POSTED CO-ORDINATES. DO NOT GO THERE

Each cache is found by solving a simple puzzle

Each cache description tells you that puzzle

Sorry if you don’t like puzzles

Most of the caches are pots big enough for small geo-swag but there are some which are are bigger than the others

                                                     

            

 

            
            

And so for this cache…

            

Can you believe the car park has a phone number? It is ABAA ACD EFAA
