Located in Fernwood Botanical Gardens
and Nature Preserve along the beautiful St. Joseph River.
Since there are Visitor Fees (see below), take time to hike the
other numerous trails and gardens, take a break with visits to
the Nature Center and Gallery Exhibits and if your present at
lunch time you can bring your own picnic or select something
from the cafe. Please make sure you pick up a map of the grounds
and follow Fernwood's no off trail hiking rules.
Parking is only allowed at the Mary Plym Visitor Center. Please
enter the grounds through this entrance before starting your search
for all Fernwood caches.
Thanks to the Happy Hearts for this uniquely camouflaged
container. Placed with Fernwood staff approval, allows visitors to
explore the Woods between the Gardens and the Arboretum of
Fernwood. No bushwhacking or leaving the trail is required,
just ingenuity.
