Easy to find, just opposite the park entrance. 

The park is worth a walk around, it has a small but quite nice nature area at the opposite end to the cache, where the Pyl Brook has been diverted into the park, which attracts many insects and birds.  There is also a little public footpath alongside the brook, next to the park.  

Marked as terrain 1.5 due to the fact is probably not quite wheelchair accessible, would be a difficult reach. 

And it's just next to a supermarket if you need to do your shopping too.  And a fast food restaurant if you want to reward yourself with a burger.

Aw yus, another nature cache! This was a wonderful day, in which I apparently walked a solid 9 miles throughout it!

My third cache of the day, and I’m so happy that I worked these into my travels today. I’d just come up from the Wetlands cache not far from here, and what’s this, a cache related to willows as well! Another nod to Canada, sending me to my new country here (willows are quite common back there). A nice little green area, with lots of trees and foliage, and a nice little fence to kinda lean on and just… enjoy the scenery.

It was a good end to my adventures today, several tasks accomplished, I got to feed some pigeons in the middle of it, I got to see a park, wetlands, AND treespace, it was a good solid day of nature today.

Thank you so much for the caches, it made for a beautiful day, showed me some wonderful scenery, and put a big ol’ smile on my face today. Thank you ^_^
