Placed along a nature trail close to Old Town.
Lower moors nature trail runs from Old town towards Porthloo beach. The trail leads through a wetland consisting of a mixture of sallow thicket, reed bed and wet pasture. There is a small pool in the middle of the moor overlooked by two hides. The raised path gives views across the largest reed bed on St. Mary's and there is a circular board walk through the reeds on the western side of the main path. The hides are best visited early or late in the day. Herons can often be seen roosting around the back of the pool. Moorhen and Mallard breed on the pool. Butterflies can be seen most months. GPS signal may be a bit erratic due to tree cover. The cache contains a log book and pencil. Many geocachers have stated that there is a fence in the way. This is wrong, there is no fence. If your GPS takes you to a fence it's not got a good signal, you are in the wrong place.
