Description
EN
This cache is one of a series of ten caches set in Beinn Eighe National Nature Reserve. Three are on easy flat paths, two on moderately steep paths and the remaining five are on mountain paths which will require appropriate footwear and clothing. Beinn Eighe was Britain’s first nature reserve and has many interesting natural and geological features. The visitor’s centre is open from Easter to October but, if closed, there is a lot of information at the notice boards including various booklets describing the different trails.
Take mountain path from ridge walk (Junction at N57 36.530 W005 19.142). The cache lies about 4.5 km up the Pony Track from which you get splendid views of the north side of Beinn Eighe. I called it Crater Cache because from above, the rocky feature on which the cache is placed, looks very much like a crater. If walking from Two Waterfalls cache, continue up the track until you reach a small circular lochan on your left. Leave the track before the lochan and go up over shattered rock to the summit of this crag (crater!). There are a couple of cairns on the summit and the cache can be found about half way between the cairns, a few metres lower on the western side.
