Rhaeadr Falls Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Fangsy: I will archive this and my other active caches until I can either remove them or verify they are no longer in place. As it may be a long time until I can do so it would be better to not have people looking for them if their existence is in question.
Thank You to all who have visited and enjoyed this location, find or not.

Geocache Description:

This cache is located in cwm Rhaeadr about 5 miles from the town of Llandovery. Near a rushing stream and a series of waterfalls, this has to be one of the prettiest places I have been to!

First make your way to a small car parking area at N52°03.905' W003°48.166' (SN 76495 42255).
You can now walk a short way up the track to where a new 'all abillity' trail has been created through the woods on your left. There is also new small parking area here too, but pretty close to the listed parking. The pathway snakes its way through the forestry to join the main track again just past a small pond.
Or if you feel you prefer more tricky path then head west immediately from the car park along the sign posted walking trail past the picnic tables, through the trees, untill you meet the gravel roadway again (cannot guarantee the condition of this path, or indeed it's existence all the way through, any more), follow this left!

You may want to wear good walking boots if there has been a lot of rain as the path can be muddy in places, also you may find you get wet feet much closer to the cache :)

The cache is a small clear plastic snaplock type container.

Original Contents: a tape measure, a Tony the Tiger figure, a light-up optical mouse keyring, star-trek federation and klingon pin badges, 2 small chips of poor quality emerald, 2 25 pesata coins (pre euro), a lavender doll, and finally a small log-book and pencil.
PLEASE be careful on the rocks in and around the stream, they can be VERY slippery.

Addendum. Very close to this cache is hidden another container of geocache type. This is intended by its owners to be part of a similar game and is not there in error and should not be removed if found. It is not listed within geocaching.com, but instead will be part of an educational navigation and treasure hunt run in conjunction with a local town council.
