Geocache Description:

Please note, The Landmark Trust, who manage Lundy on behalf of The National Trust do not allow physical geocaches on Lundy. In the past these have been set without permission and cachers have damaged ancient and protected sites. Please DO NOT attempt to set a physical cache on Lundy. The box for this Multi Cache is back on the mainland and NOT ON LUNDY!


Also, do not attempt to 'adopt' one of Lundy's Letterboxes (non-cache Letterboxes) as a geocache as this will be rejected too. The No Physical Elements policy does allow for Multis (and Letterbox Hybrids) of this sort, plus Earth Caches So if you'd like to set one of those with the LT's permission, that should be possible. Good luck with this cache and remember, cache with care! Set with Landmark Trust permission, with the kind help of Kevham1 as the boxes' local guardian.

This is Lundy for Begginers, a simple Multi cache which takes you from the quay at the island's south end to the main Village, via some nice places to rest and relax on the way as it's a climb of approx 105m/350ft. There are also Lundy: Intermediate Multi plus Lundy: Extreme and Lundy: ULTIMATE! Letterbox/Hybrid geocaches which are part of this mini series - Info gathered for this cache will help with them too. My thanks to L8HNB for suggesting I set these caches.

Please see waypoints or below for further info, and once you've gathered the figures required (A to J), head to N51° AB.CDE W004° FG.HIJ WHICH IS BACK ON THE MAINLAND for a quick easy find, I hope. Good luck and happy caching. If it helps, A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J=43. If you're taken somewhere which looks private, you've got something wrong somewhere...

N51° 09.928 W004° 39.937 - In Memory of P.W. How many 9-letter words on the plaque? = I. How many words are five OR MORE letters long? (hyphonated doesn't count but names do!)= J.

This cache was set after my I Claim Lundy for the People of Freedonia! event of July 19th 2016; a very warm day indeed! Thanks again to everyone who attended that - I hope this cache tempts them back.
