Geocache Description:

An easy to get to cache, off the bed of an old railway track in a country park, with lots to see and do.

Wynyard Woodland Park

The Castle Eden Walkway was opened to the public as a Country Park in 1981. Based on a section of the old Stockton to Wellfield railway line, it started life as one of several nature trails throughout the country established on old railway track beds. In 1983 the old Stationmaster's house was opened as a Visitor Centre and in 1989 an extension, built as a faithful reproduction of the previously demolished waiting room, was added.

Over time it has expanded in line with its popularity. Its most recent acquisition, the purchase of more than 200 hundred acres of woodland and farmland, has virtually doubled the size of the site and changed the nature of it to such an extent that it can no longer be regarded as a mere 'walkway'. This exciting new development prompted the decision to re-name the site to something more in keeping with its new status. It will now be known as the Wynyard Woodland Park.

Access to the park is off the A177 Durham Road at Thorpe Thewles.

The cache is a small box containing logbook and pencil, key rings, £1 for chocolate for first finder and lots of fun kids stuff.
