It seems we're headed back along the river towards the Telegraph Station...
If you're here in the early mornings or the evenings, you'll see that this is one of the most popular running/walking/ and cycling tracks for Alice locals like ourselves. Make sure you day hello to us - we're a friendly bunch up here. You might even encounter one of the Alice caching team... :)
The rest of the walk back to the car is along the gently undulating (mostly flat!) Todd River, lined with River Red Gums, Corkwoods, Mulga and lots of Acacia. Look out for Singing Honey Eaters, Brown Kites and even Red Tailed Cockatoos. If you're a twitcher as well as a cacher, then you'll probably be interested to know that Grey Honeyeaters (truly the world's most BORING bird!) have been seen here in good seasons.

The Bradshaw Walk is a very easy 2.4km walk that takes you in a loop from the main Telegraph Station carpark, through very gentle terrain below a rocky ridge, and then returns along the Todd River's Riverside walk to your vehicle. The walk will take you around an hour to do the whole loop.
To encourage you to NOT be a couch potato, we've placed a number of caches along the Bradshaw Walk. You'll need some runners or comfy walking shoes, a hat and some water.
The cache is a small cammo'd spice bottle. It still smells faintly of garlic. Should keep the vampires away. There's a logbook, a wee little pencil and room for a few goecoin-sized swaps. Please be aware of muggles when you're retrieving this cache. Maybe pretend you're sitting on the rocks, having a drink of water after your epic journey...
