Wingrove Park, which was an Aboriginal meeting place, extends
along the Diamond Creek and boasts a bicycle track and a colony of
platypuses.
This park is one of many along the 'Heidelberg School Artists
Trail', a route designed to take interested parties to the
approximate sites depicted in the paintings of those associated
with the Heidelberg School (i.e., Arthur Streeton, Walter Withers,
Louis Buvelot, Tom Roberts, Clara Southern, David Davies, Emanuel
Phillips Fox, Charles Conder, Tudor St George Tucker, Eugene Von
Guerard, May Vale and Jane Price).
THEMED CACHE :- This cache will contain Scout bages and other
Scouting swaps from 17th October 2003, as it will be used as part
of JOTI (Jamboree of the Internet, see
http://www.joti.org/ ). Feel
free to swap non-Scouting items for non-Scouting items, Scouting
items for Scouting items. Scouts, GPSr and the internet ... a very
interesting mix!
Please ensure that the cache is well hidden after you have made
your exchange.

November 8 by stumbled again (14 found) Surprised such a beautiful park had no one around. Signs of rabbits everywhere. This park would really come alive on dusk. Must come back at night to appreciate it better. Took marble, left wishing stone. TFTC.
[view this log] | October 24 by The_Easter_Bunnies (245 found) It's been a while since I DYB-ed and DOB-ed but fortunately we weren't too out of shape to find this hide. Lots of birds for company today. Took fish TB and smiley eraser, left glass egg. TFTC
[view this log] | October 17 by dcr (153 found) 1st Eltham & 1st Chelsea Heights Cubs visited for JOTI/JOTA 2009, dropped off some 2009 Badges and 3 x Knoppix CDs
[view this log] | September 25 by Vzzzbx (82 found) TERRIFYING. Large noisy birds everywhere, rabbits the size of tigers, and at one point a very large branch broke off a tree just a few feet from my head. But, I found it, and in the end that's what counts. Ta very much.
[view this log] | September 15 by Almost_there (33 found) Found at 12:04pm with Been_there. One of those beautiful days for a walk in the park. First of 3 for the day. I never realized how extensive this park was. Have walked and ridden along here many times - thanks for taking us off the made path.
