Geocache Description:

Our first traditional cache placed in Halsdon.
The cache is placed in Halsdon Woods. There is a lot of tree cover here so the GPS may be a bit sketchy.

Halsdon Woods is owned by the Devon Wildlife trust and has a range of walks available.


This cache is hidden along the solid green route, which is an easy access route. To follow this route you need to park in the Quarry (South) Entrance
Carpark (only room for a couple of cars here). You can park in the Ashwell Car Park (North Entrance) if no space available here, but it will be a longer walk to get here and it will be steep in places.

Once you have found the cache, why not keep on walking to the river, were if you are lucky you might be able to see some otters or even a King Fisher.

For those that want a more challenging walk why not follow the dotted green route or the longer white route. These routes do go thru some fields so please be aware that there may at times be cows in the fields.

If you follow the white route you will be able to retrieve our other cache, ‘Top Of The World’(CURRENTLY DISABLED).


This cache has been hidden with the permission of the Devon Wildlife Trust.

Please obey the signs and shut all gates behind you, and keep dogs on leads.
