Geocache Description:


Mt Hollowback (Australian Aboriginal placename Larngigurarurg ‘home of female kangaroos’) is a grassy, volcanic eruption sticking out of the plains north of Ballarat. It has two microwave towers on the western 'peak' with a good sealed road to a geological trig point (elevation 581m) and lookout tower used by the CFA for seasonal fire spotting. Open takeoff areas are popular with Ballarat Aero Modellers Inc. and The Western Victorian Hang-Gliding Club.

Located at Bald Hills, Victoria - West Inland, near Ballarat, 100km W of Melbourne. From Melbourne, travel on the Western Highway. Turn north at the Midland Hwy outside of Ballarat. Nearest Town: Creswick. Public access not permitted on total fire ban days. Keep the gates closed to prevent livestock wandering off. Vicroads Map 58 E9.
