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.

Lunar Loch is situated on the mountain trail from Coille na Glas-leitire car park.  This trail is quite strenuous and rises to over 500 metres.  The loch is named after the first Moon landing in 1969.  There are a number of these strange circular lochans in the area.  The cache itself lies about 45 metres north east of the Lunar Loch cairn past a large dark coloured erratic.  There is a small (light coloured, one stone) cairn close to the cache location.
