This cache is located at the entrance of the Carappee Hill
conservation park.
It was dedicated as a conservation park on 30th August, 1973.
The park covers an area approx 920 hectares. Carappee Hill is the
most extensive and highest exposed granite rock mass on Eyre
Peninsula at 495 metres above sea level.
This is an energetic climb to the top which should only be
attempted by people with a high degree of fitness; allow at least 2
hours to reach the summit. The trail is marked with white and green
painted arrows from the southern point, with a book to sign at the
summit, or stroll on down the eastern side. A great view, with
wildflowers and rock pools in season and frequented by kangaroos
and other wildlife.
The track around the base is accessible by two wheel drive, but
from my experience, I would suggest that a 4WD is the better
option. There are camping and toilet facilities available at around
the half way mark.
The cache is a 2 litre screw top container with swaps os a pen,
fridge magnet,packet of hooks and an RAA tattoo along with the log
book and pencil.
