This route will be crawling with emmets during the summer months
but hopefully you can find a few minutes alone at the cache
site.
"Emmet" - Cornish word for ant. Now used to describe those
visiting our shores during the summer season.
Sorry the walk isn't circular but Newquay is a linear town!
Try to find on road parking in the roads around the first
location or, if it’s busy, then park in a car park nearby. Or walk
or cycle to the first location.
NOTE: The original cache was muggled in April 2006, it has now
been replaced and moved to a new location.
