The word Kororoit is thought to have been derived from an Aboriginal word meaning male kangaroo.
Along the Kororoit Creek a rich and colourful history has flowed, natural and social; it has flowed past interesting rock and land formations where fascinating wildlife has made its home; it has flowed through time as the home of the Wurundjeri tribe, as the nineteenth century "bridge" to the Ballarat Goldfields, to the present; it's a story that is alive and well and continues to flow today.
The Trail
Most of the trail is a concrete shared path that is suitable for all bikes (and walkers). Sections of dirt are still being worked upon, as Councils complete small sections that will eventually run the full length of the creek.
There are several entrances to the trail, and a few carparks (even some toilets!)
As the trail follows the creek there are no steep long hills (a few very short ones though!).
This Cache
This is a short multi (you didn't think I was going to make them all traditionals did you?).
The notice board is very new and talks of the stepping stones that cross the creek, and a mural. The stones are obvious, but where is the mural? This multi will show you.
Way point 2 is the concrete cap just on the other side of the creek, use the stones to cross.
Collect the number painted on the side (#AB) and, as you recross the stones, look up.
(Try not to fall in!)
The final can be found at: S37 48.(A-A)(B*2)(A-1) E144 49.(A+1)(B*2)(B+1)
A very short walk away (unless you fell off the rocks into the water, then the walk will probably feel a lot longer!)
