Parking for the Adventure Lab and Bonus Cache

The co ords are for a free parking area on the Fosseway. The cache is hidden somewhere between Bourton on the Water and Lower Slaughter so this could be a midway point to park - helpful if you choose to actually walk between the villages and find this cache on the way back!

There are 2 other possible parking areas before and after this one all on the same side of the road. If you arrive early enough to find a space please ensure you park safely and do not cause an obstruction. Take care crossing the Fosseway, then you can then walk into Bourton – either sticking to Lansdowne Road or veering off onto the Windrush Way footpath that follows the river.

If you have no luck here, or prefer to use official parking then you will have to take your chances in Bourton on the Water – time limited free parking is at a premium but you may get lucky along High Street – ensure you park legally and responsibly - police have towed away vehicles that contravene regulations and road markings, or you can use the big pay and display car parks on Station road and near Birdland – around £6 for 5hours if you plan to make a day of it and visit the attractions too. 

The Bonus Cache is accessible by car but there is no parking  directly at GZ – but you should find somewhere close by to pull in whilst you go find it.
