Geocache Description:


The Umhlali railway station, which is now the second-hand furniture shop

Established by English and Scottish settlers in 1850, Umhlali was the site of a fort which led to it originally being called Fort William. Umhlali is the Zulu name for the Monkey Orange tree which grew abundantly along the banks of the Umhlali River. The name also means 'place of waiting', because settlers and locals would have to wait on the river bank before crossing the water. 

The cache is placed at one of the old footpaths used my many years ago when they were en route to catch the train.

You can park right by GZ but need to keep your eyes peeled for the stalls across the way which many years back use to be a pub and hotel for the wary passengers.
