Geocaching at Clent: Risks and Information

The Geocaches at National Trust Clent Hills are a new way for people to explore and engage with this beautiful area.

Focusing on wildlife and habitats, the Geocaches are all located on public rights of way and so are accessible year round without charge.

Each Geocache contains a log book for you to leave your name and comments. Some may be camouflaged with twigs and leaves, so please replace this cover after you have finished with the Geocache.

Things to be aware of when setting out to find our Geocaches:
1. The public footpaths can be uneven, muddy and slippery in wet weather. Wellies or walking boots are recommended!
2. As with any woodland area, there are lots of roots and other trip hazards about – so watch where you put your feet.
3. Keep an eye on young children as there are slopes and drop-offs close to the footpaths. There are also some sections of electric fencing immediately behind the fence line.
4. Please keep an eye out for rubbish, stinging nettles, brambles and holly (for your own comfort!) and tread carefully to avoid trampling the woodland plants (e.g. bluebells in spring). It would be wise to use a stick when looking for the cache, rather than your hands.
5. Some of the footpaths pass through fields, which at some times of year have livestock in them (sheep / young cows). Please close all gates behind you!
6. Parking, café and toilet facilities are available at Nimmings Wood car park (café and toilets are closed on Mondays only) There are also car parking facilities at Walton Hill and Adams Hill

Access Information: The public footpaths are very uneven in places and may be slippery. There are also some moderate slopes and several stiles along some routes.

Good luck and be sure to let us know what you think in the log-books or at www.geocaching.com
