Aussie Train Driver's 82nd cache is at the Sanatorium Lake Picnic Ground. This is a great spot for a picnic and has several picnic tables and a fireplace.
In the 19th century, the cool climate of the Macedon region was thought to provide a perfect environment for patients suffering tuberculosis. In 1899 a sanatorium was opened a short distance down the Mount in a building previously used as a private hospital. The lake was built to supply water to a new, larger sanatorium which due to opposition and lack of funding was never built. The original sanatorium closed in 1910 and was later destroyed by fire.
There are a number of walking and cycling tracks in this area and the lake is a short walk away where another of my caches can be found. The cache is a 200ml sistema container hidden in a typical fashion. Please make sure the cache is well hidden before you leave. Enjoy!
