Geocache Description:


First a few words of warning. I describe this as a family friendly series, but should probably add the words "who like a bit of excitement!" Although the vast majority of the paths are easy enough, the stretches between HH09 and Sharrah Pool and between HH27 and HH28 I would rate as Terrain 4. There are some very steep sections with a sharp drop adjacent and these are NOT sutiable for young children and I would recommend that ALL children are supervised.

A family friendly series of 34 caches, plus 3 bonus caches, taking you on a circular hike of about 7 miles in length.  There are reasonable paths most of the way, although there are 2 much more difficult sections. Although I describe this as family friendly it is NOT suitable for buggies or for very young children. It is also very undulating with several climbs and descents.

Although only about 7 miles in length this is very much a full day's hike, although it is easy to split it into 2 (or more) easier chunks. It will take you through a wide variety of terrains and includes a wide variety of caches, including several novelty ones. All caches are placed "to be found" and hints are given where necessary.

For each bonus cache only four pieces of information are required and each is duplicated in a second cache. The calculations are very easy.

As it is a family friendly series there are several largish caches, so please do come with some decent swag to allow your children to trade. Most caches are large enough to allow trackables to be placed.

Please leave in plain view as found.

Please do NOT leave sweets in any cache.

Caches placed with the kind permission of the Dartmoor National Park Authority.
