Geocache Description:

This cache will take you an amazing spot which overlooks the Werribee Gorge. It will also challenge those who have a fear of needles.



You may be able to get to this from the gorge below, I would think you would need to go approx 100m past the "lion head" outcrop, which is just past where a wire rope attached to the rock wall is used to get around the outcrop. From here you will need to cross the river and make a way up "pyramid hill" and across to the cache.

The way I followed to the cache was to park at the "western Bluff Walk" carpark, and picked my way to the location. It is a good walk to go to the western bluff, then make your way to the cache location. I would suggest sticking to the ridgelines as much as possible, as it can get steep and difficult quickly here.

If you wished to take the most direct route, follow the trainline to waypoint 1, cross the fence, then walk the other side of the fenceline (sticking to the park side of such) and ridge lines to the cache location. It is actually a fairly easy walk...

Once you have logged your find and conquered your fears, be sure to give yourself a stamp for being so brave.
