Up The Khyber Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MrCJDL: Cache appears to have fallen deep inside the tree as the inside is rotting more now. Sadly, I dont think this is a suitable place for a cache anymore, so archiving this one.

Geocache Description:

Welcome to 'Up The Khyber'!

This is a relatively quick cache n dash, however if you've got the time, why not explore Mugdock Country Park a little while you're here... there are plenty of other caches nearby - though it'd be easy to spend a whole afternoon looking for them all !

This cache has previously been muggled, please log all DNFs


The cache is hidden on the narrow country road (known locally as 'The Khyber Pass Road', named so for the steep hill, hairpin bends, and the cliffs a little further on) which runs from Mugdock Country Park to Stockiemuir Road.

Getting there: Parking is available nearby in Mugdock Country Park either at the visitor centre, or closer at the 'Kyber Car Park'.

Note: Kyber Car Park is open 9am-4pm all year round, however even if closed there is space for a couple of cars at the entrance to the car park.

Cache is in the obvious place approx 150ft south of the car-park entrance, on the country road. Although this is a quiet country road, please be careful as it is also very narrow.

Cache is a small lock-n-lock box with cache-note, log-book and room for some small items. No pen in the box, so please be sure to bring your own !

Hope you enjoy this quickie !
