Waterfalls

[+tarmacjohn]

I am rapidly approaching my 3000 cache milestone and am looking for something a bit special. 1000 was a mountain, 2000 was a Mega event and for some reason I fancy doing something with a waterfall for my 3000.

 

So, to the point of my topic. Does anybody know of a memorable cache of this type within about 150 miles of Worcestershire.

 

Or if no waterfalls, has anyone got another cache that would be worth considering. I have no special equipment or skills other than no fear (I am feeling quite adventerous)

 

Thanks

One that came immediately to mind is LQ: Shropshire - - Lightspout Waterfall GC16NJG.

 

Not a spectacular waterfall, but it's a splendid walk.

This one gets some good logs - and is within your 150 miles

GCK21K Aira Force probably fits the bill.

 

Or GCPHKE High Force.

How about a tree? If you've not already done the FMF caches in trees near to Bridgnorth that is

GCK21K Aira Force probably fits the bill.

 

Looks like a great place to visit. And yet the last log is just "TFTC". Oh well, at least it wasn't blank.

I would recommend Pont Melin Fach waterfalls, an earthcache on a lovely waterfall walk in S.Wales

Hey up Tarmac, Hope you don't mind being called Tarmac. Have you thought of going underground? Maybe you have done them already but there are a cave or two and a railway tunnel or two in Gloucestershire/Herefordshire which would be in your range.

How about The "Extreme" Waterfall(http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=0bd68cc0-51b5-42ea-b687-33e503870773) whcih is a Trad north of Swansea.

 

I loved it and is most certainly a favorite of mine.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions, I think Forest of Dean and South Wales are my route of choice. A nice round trip with 3 or 4 waterfalls to play with.

I have done '28 days later' and 'Looking for Linda' but if you know of others then please tell so that I can add them to the route.

 

Thanks all

Sid and Bob (who did 28 Days later and Linda) have also got Wye Rapids and King Arthur's Cave.

MT1 The Bitterest Pill - GC11EVV is another railway tunnel one. This is another SidandBob one.

A wonderful little place where you can walk underneath the waterfall!
