Geocache Description:

A time-travelling adventure through Leicester's past.

This is a Wherigo that will take you on a tour of historical Leicester. You will start in the present day before being whisked through time and space to travel back into Leicester's often colourful past.

The cartridge can be downloaded here.

The walk, once complete, will be approximately 8 km / 5 miles in length and it took our beta testers just over 3 hours to complete, although they did stop for lunch and to look around in more detail at some of the locations you will visit! A couple of hours should be fine to enjoy the walk at a leisurely pace!

 

On a more technical note, we have set-up the cartridge to save automatically every time you enter a new location, which will allow you to re-start the game without having to return to the beginning.

This is our first attempt at a Wherigo cache, so constructive feedback is always welcome! Since this is our first, lgxkls were good enough to help us by beta testing the catridge and so they have earned half of a joint FTF on this cache. The other half of this joint FTF will be of the more standard FTF variety!

Leicester has lots of parking, however, we have provided a couple of possible parking options as waypoints below to help visitors to the city

Please retrieve and hide the cache very carefully: the cache is in an area of high muggle activity.

FTF Honours go to lgxkls and Foxy54
