Waypoint 1
The co-ordinates will bring you to a lovely little park in
Dookie. It has toilets and playground equipment etc, and is a great
place to stop for a break. It also houses the town clock tower
which deserves a closer look.
The clock mechanism and clock faces were originally on the
Chateau Dookie cellars and tower, which was built around 1887. The
clock mechanism was removed in 1917 and stored until 1927. It was
next used in Bright as a War Memorial in the town square in Bright
until around 1973. It was later donated back to the people of
Dookie for their centenary in 1988. There are plaques on the clock
tower with this and further information.

Chateau building which is still in use as a private residence. This
house once overlooked approximately 497 acres of vineyard.
