The LangfordGL7 cache is located along a public footpath which if taken from Langford starts opposite the red phone box.

Car parking is easily available at the nearby public house and don’t forget a visit to the church of St Matthews or the newly installed playground. A longer walk can be taken across the attractive countryside to neighbouring villages.

Set up in January 2013 the geocache started with life with 3 runaway trackables; the Langford Goat, Hedgehog and Chicken. All challenged to travel far and wide. The race was on to see who will travel the greatest distance! All trackables have now been retired with them reaching South Africa, Australia and Birmingham!!

In wet weather the fields can get very boggy so welly boots are essential but the views are worth it!
