Geocache Description:

This involves a short drive, including part of the Ornamental Drive, visiting a number of interesting features of the New Forest. The final walk is about ten minutes each way. Each of the clue locations has sufficient parking and you may like to enjoy a bit of extra time looking round. It will involve some short, level walks.

*******Please Note, that from 12-8-09 the location of the final cache has changed, and the previous clue about the blue disc, which caused a few problems, has been removed.*******
