Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

Being an ammo can this is a STUBBY HOLDER ONLY swap. The cache is the shape of a can so i thought it appropriate. The cache is 1 step off the track so please dont go "bush".
On the outskirts of Trafalgar is the Uralla Nature Reserve (U.N.R). TRUST FOR NATURE (Victoria) owns the U.N.R which is managed by the Baw Baw Shire through the voluntary efforts of the U.N.R Management Committee.
PLANTS & WILDLIFE
There are valuable old growth mountain Grey Gums within the Reserve that support a range of arboreal mammals and birds. Silvertop Ash and Messmate Stringybark along with the Grey Gums are the most abundant eucalypts in the Reserve. There is a rich abundance of native flora and fauna species in the Reserve, including some rare and threatened species, of which the Trafalgar Millipede is just one.
FACILITIES
A small car park is provided outside the entrance gate on Giles Road. The entrance, by necessity, precludes vehicles. If wheelchair access is required please contact the Baw Baw Shire Council Trafalgar Office on 5633 1911 to arrange for the gates to be opened. An information board and tables are provided in a picnic area 50m inside the main entrance and at various locations along the tracks there are seats for resting and viewing. There are no toilets or water storage in the Reserve- these amenities are available in the Trafalgar shopping centre.
WALKING IN THE RESERVE
Except for the easy access walking track, all the tracks consist of at least some reasonably steep parts. However, none are too difficult for the average adult or child to trek. The longest walk which is a return taking in Bullocky, Ross, Cooper's and Donaldson's tracks should not take more than 90 minutes at a leisurely walking pace.
