This cache is located in the France village of Montrichard, a beautiful stop in your days of chateau hopping around the Loire Valley. You can find the area by driving around the village and looking for an old dungeon castle looking place on a hill. This is a museum of the old "donjon". The museum itself is open:
Easter - 30 June 14:00- 18:00
July and August 10:00-12:00 (weekends and holidays)
14:00 - 18:00
September 14:00 - 18:00
However, you DONT need access to the museum to find the cache, so the cache is available year round! On the path around the left to the museum there is a turn in the path and a crumbling ruin outcrop off the edge. Just at the turn there is currently an old wagon (not sure if it will always be there though) Go behind into the bush a bit to look for the outcrop. Climb down the last few feet on the back side away from prying eyes. Be very careful. Tough terrain. Not good for children.
Check out the gallery for a first picture of the entrance to the location!
