Geocache Description:

A quick but interesting traditional cache. During Summer no access fees apply, but during Winter they do, however it may be possible to just drive in and drive out without obtaining a parking permit if you're not going anywhere near the top, as it's just a couple of kilometres past the gate. Tell the fee collector that you just want to see the Gnome Tree.

On the Mount Buller Rroad between Mirimbah and the Mount Biller Alpine Village, there is a Gnome house reminiscent of something out of the Lord of the Rings.

No-one knows, or is telling, anything about it's origins, but it was first noticed many years ago at a parking area along the road. It has served our family well as a focus for the children to take their minds off the winding drive up the mountain.

The cache is a 1 litre Sistema box located not far from the Gnome Tree.
