Cache is situated near cow castle, an iron age hill fort in a beautiful area of Exmoor
This cache can be approached from two directions; either by parking at Horsen Farm and walking across from Horsen Ford, or by parking at Simonsbath. The valley can get quite busy on a nice day, and as the cache is quite near a footpath feel free to relocate it if neccessary and let us know.
To find the cache you will need to take the path that goes around the back of Cow Castle. There is quite a nice swimming spot on the bend in the stream just by a gate, if you follow the encrypted directions from this landmark you should find it quite easily. For those of you who prefer to do things the hard way: White Water, dry stone wall, ash tree. The cache itself is an ammo box.
