The Cache site is a Lookout on Lookout Road, New Lambton Heights
The site overlooks Blackbutt Reserve and the city of Newcastle.
Blackbutt Reserve occupies approximately 182 hectares of land
six kilometres from Newcastle city centre. It offers visitors many
opportunities to link recreational activities and environmental
education with conservation and research programs.
Consisting of Eucalypt forest and pockets of significant remnant
vegetation, Blackbutt Reserve boasts a restored rainforest
providing habitats for a number of rare and vulnerable species.
Vast opportunities for conservation and research exist throughout
this unique natural environment.
Blackbutt Reserve is an undulating natural environment
consisting of peaceful picnic settings with electric and wood fire
barbecues, open spaces, bushwalking trails and a diverse range of
habitats and ecosystems. It also features wildlife exhibits which
are modern, spacious and allow close viewing of the animals -
including koalas, wombats, native birds, emus and kangaroos.
Below the lookout you will find a colony of Flying Fox which you
can both see and hear.
Enjoy the views and take you camera.
The cache is a clear 400ml sistema container with log and
