Geocache Description:

Drop in to the Visitor Information Centre and pick up a little map and guide for the car door tours. A great way to see Lightning Ridge at its original best, the car door tours red, yellow, blue and green, will take you around the local sites, without treading on anyone's toes. A must do while you are here!

The Black Opal is unique to Lightning Ridge but it is not the only unique thing… the Ridge is also famous for its Car Door Tour so be sure to drop into the Visitor Information Centre for your guide to this special experience. These quirky journeys are Lightning Ridge's answer to 'self drive' tours and are a great way to start your visit to The Ridge. Four tours are demarcated by colour coded and numbered car doors.

Strung in trees and leaning in easily seen places, the car doors will lead you to some of the Ridge's greatest attractions.

You will find Charlie Nettleton's first hand sunk shaft at the end of the green car door tour, take your cheese and nibbles and stop for the sunset at this great ridge location! On the red car door tour you will find Amigo's Castle and the Astronomers Monument. These monumental constructions are a testament to Lightning Ridge's self taught architects and builders, be sure to keep an eye out on the fields for all the other unique homes. Departs At your leisure.
