This multicache will take you on a tour of Hobart’s old cemeteries. Most have been changed into beautiful parks. Take your time and have a good look around.
All the information that’s required to get to the next waypoint is at each location. You don’t need to remember information for the next stage.
The cache is a 4 litre bucket so that large travel bugs or swaps can be placed.
