Geocache Description:

Being suitably inspired by the Presidents Trail in the High Desert of California, I felt compelled to place a Prime Ministers Trail in South Australia. The difference between the two is that these are all small containers (not micros) and will not be along a power line so distances and locations will vary.

This series has 26 caches placed over 42 kilometres between Two Wells, Mallala and Owen – Enjoy!


George Reid, Prime Minister from 1904 to 1905, was Leader of the Opposition for six of the first seven years of the Australian parliament.

Reid is remembered more for his quirks than his acquittal of the roles of parliamentary representative, party leader, Prime Minister, and Australia’s founding High Commissioner in London.

Though he held office for less than a year, Reid’s story makes him one of the most interesting of Australia’s prime ministers.
