Geocache Description:

There is a parking bay on the north side of the bridge. Bring your own pen. Some stealth required. This park has picnic tables, public toilets and there's a petrol station across the road. If you follow Brookes Creek east from here there is a wooden platform giving a spectacular view of Lake Illawarra.

Welcome to the Lake Illawarra Power Trail. This cache is part of a series of caches that don the foreshore of Lake Illawarra. These caches highlight the picturesque and unique locations around the lake.

This large mass of water is used by industrial, recreational and professional people for sailing, skiing, rowing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, boating, diving and is the home to a variety of flora and fauna.  It has a number of islands and reefs within.  It's tidal to the Tasman Sea via a narrow channel at Windang.

The trail (a loop around the lake) is approx 30km with most caches accessible by bike or by "car n walk".  The LIPT is a work in progress and as further foreshore locations become available additional caches will be placed.

** Congrats to Oyston4 for FTF! **
