Pembroke Traditional Geocache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Greatland Reviewer: Dear TeamPufferfish,

I have been going through caches that have multiple "DNF" (did not find) logs, which is often a sign that a cache is missing. Generally cachers avoid hunting a cache with many DNF logs, so it is a good idea for the Cache Owner to check the cache and either replace it or post a log to the cache page to tell fellow geocachers that the cache is still there, but they might need new eyeglasses. No action by the Cache Owner may result in a cache being archived to keep the cache from appearing in local Pocket Queries.

Please reenable the cache page after you have maintained your cache. To reenable the cache, go to the cache from your Account page on GC.com. Under "Admin Tools" in the upper right-hand corner, click "Enable," write your note and click "Submit log entry."

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Regards,

Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Pembroke Heritage Trail – a site offering eco tourism, the beauty of the Mediterranean biodiversity and a unique walk in history that gives this site its name


The garigues at Pembroke are amongst the most species-rich of the Maltese Islands, and sustain a large number of species of conservation and/or scientific importance including endemic, threatened and critically endangered ones.

The Pembroke Heritage Trail covers approx 2.5 kilometres of garigue habitat. This is a very interesting Mediterranean habitat which houses various wild plants adapted to very harsh conditions all year round. Pembroke is very rich with regards to flora where various species of orchids can be found flowering in various months of the year together with a number of endemic species one of which is only found in this site in all of Malta and the world. The site also houses a variety of fauna common to the Maltese Islands. Being on the coast Pembroke also attracts various migratory birds which stop over while on their long journeys to the North or South. The ecological richness of the site has earned Pembroke garigue the status of a Natura 2000 site making it of EU importance.
