Geocache Description:

One of a series of caches set for cyclists or walkers on the new Clay Trail cycle route linking Wheal Martyn (St. Austell) to The Eden Project (Bodelva) There is free parking at the Eden Project when it is open, otherwise various parking spots along the trail. The caches are available at all times.

The Wheal Martyn - Eden Project Clay Trail is about 5 miles long and apart from crossing one major road and a short stretch on a quite country road, uses existing bridle ways and newly built cycle tracks. The route is gravel and tarmac along its length and is suitable for cyclists and pushchairs. The caches are set just off the main trail and may require a short scramble or walk to get to them.
The trail takes you through some amazing landscapes, woodland and heathland in abandoned valleys, working clay pits, 19th & 20th century ‘conical sand tips’ now completely reclaimed by nature and superb views over St. Austell with St. Austell bay beyond.

This cache (a 400ml cliplock box) is set just off the trail (past the transmitter)and overlooks the town of St. Austell with views of St Austell bay from the Gribben to Mevagissey.
