Geocache Description:

Wirraminna occupies four hectares of formerly unused ground around the old government dam, between the school and the recreation ground in Burrumbuttock, 30 km north of Albury, in southern NSW.
From its beginning in 1995, it has developed into an environmental education centre that provides opportunities for discovery and learning about the natural environment, the ecology of the local woodlands and the beauty of native plants for our gardens.

The woodlands of Burrumbuttock once supported a great variety of native animals, but many are now disappearing or are gone from the area. Wirraminna is gradually re-vegetating parcels of land to provide food and shelter to local native birds, reptiles and animals.

As you walk through the woodlands and the Wirraminna gardens you will see a large number of nesting boxes catering for all creatures great and small - from Pardalotes to Possums - including Bats.
One of these blocks is a little way along the Burrumbuttock - Brocklesby Road. A safe area to park your car is about 1km west from the intersection with Howlong Road.

On the way to the cache you will see many young trees that have been planted by volunteers. In years to come this will transform this location into a wonderful habitat for local wildlife.

Your are looking for a container hidden in a way that is in keeping with the environmental aims of the Wirraminna EEC.

In the summer months keep your eye out for snakes.
