Geocache Description:

This series will highlight the beautiful Bambra bushland situated near the Otway National Park and only 15 minutes from Winchelsea.

All the gravel roads here are in good condition, suitable for 2wd all year round.



Keep an eye out for a clue that will assist in locating 'The Bambra Series Final'

If you came here in a 2wd it may be safer to park on the side of the road and walk in the 300m to this cache.

The locality was initially named "Retreat", but was later renamed Bambra after an Aboriginal word for mushroom. The area was opened up for selection in the 1860s. Bambra State School was opened on 20 September 1866. The Bambra Chapel, a Bible Christian Church, was opened in 1868, and became a Methodist Church in 1903. A second church, the Holy Trinity Anglican Church, held its first service on 25 May 1902. Bambra Post Office opened on 23 September 1892 and closed on 29 September 1973. The school closed around the 1980s; the churches have also closed, although one survives as a private house.
The locality still has a public hall, tennis courts, cemetery and a Hare Krishna retreat.
