Goldielands and the 3 Clues Multi-Cache
runningmap: Definitely muggled and the site is no longer safe (kids tree-house above the spot) so I'll not be replacing this one. I'll introduce a new cache somewhere not too far away when I find the perfect place. Thanks to everyone who visited this one and took a photo.

The cache is not at the above location ! And it’s not at Goldielands Tower either. It’s a nice walk of 1.5 – 2 miles in the awarding-winning Wilton Lodge Park, and the cache itself is near to one of my favourite local views – up the valley to Goldielands Tower.
This is almost a traditional cache but to avoid a park and grab you need to find some of the co-ordinates by visiting 3 places of interest in the local Park and noting some details. In the box is a camera which is NOT a swap. It’s only a small box and I would prefer it not to have swaps. Travel Bugs are very welcome if they will fit in the box.
I suggest you retrieve the box and move to the obvious viewpoint nearby where you can complete the log book without attracting too much attention from the dog walkers. I would be chuffed if you could take a photo of the view and/or yourself, using the camera supplied, and annotate the log book with the number from the camera before you took the photo. At intervals I’ll publish the photos on geocaching.com.
Parking: There are various places to park with the only problem being some Saturdays when there are rugby games on and a few of the car parking areas get very busy.
You can do the points in any order but the cache is easiest approached from Point 3 from where you can follow a path all the way (head northwest for a few minutes first). And please don’t take any shortcuts through private gardens.
