Geocache Description:


This is the first cache you come to at the Welsh end of the Second Severn Crossing bridge. It's close to, but not at, the Magor Services. An easy, quick, large cache for the "Cacher in a Hurry", it provides an opportunity to stretch your legs and take your first breath of yeasty Welsh air.

If you're looking for glorious vistas of mountains, sheep, castles and dragons you will be disappointed. For such, you need to attempt "The First in Wales GC2BA" cache (dragons not guaranteed). However, this cache is quite close to Magor brewery which has the capacity to produce a million cans of various well-known brands of booze PER DAY. Just imagine that! Those of you not interested in this alcoholic fact may appreciate knowing that the spent yeast goes to produce a well known yeast spread!

You can park right by the cache, just off the roundabout, there is enough space to just pull in. Alternative parking in the new business park at N51°35.197 W2°50.566 but be aware during weekdays there may be restrictions here (avoid marked spaces). If you're staying at the hotel in the business park then it's a short walk.

The cache container is a 7" x 5" x 3" tupperware box and big enough for trackables so if you have any travelling to and from Wales they are most welcome welcome. Please ensure that the cache is well covered from all angles when it is replaced.
