Geocache Description:

when we arrived here, i thought this would be a great spot for a cache. the only container i had was my sons snack container, so it got emptied and a log book and a couple of swaps put in. you will need your own writing implement as i didnt have a pencil with me (if someone could leave one when they find it, that would be great).
have fun exploring like we did.

The Lost City is a collection of rock formations that have left behind as the softer sandstone cap of the table top range eroded away. The Lost City became famous with the old wagon road used by early pioneers passing through this rock formation. The last couple of kms of the current road follow the old wagon road that joined the homestead of Stapleton Station near Adelaide River to the outstation (Blyth Homestead).

How to get there - Near Batchelor, 100 km south-west of Darwin, the Park is generally accessible all year (sealed roads) via Batchelor. In the dry season it is also possible to get to the Park via Cox Peninsula Road (which is unsealed).

When to visit - This Park is spectacular at any time, though most 4WD tracks are closed during the wet season. Generally open from May to November, and admission is free.

congrates on the FTF kemikal, and thanks for dropping off the pencil.
