Geocache Description:


GIDGEE LANE

25 55.472S  144 38.398E

For Cobb & Co. Stage Coach passengers, the experience must have been every bit as awfull as Air Travel is today.
The company's workers did their best for both passengers and themselves as this 200 metre 'paved' road demonstrates.
This was a horse change for the Stage Coach prior to entering Adavale and dropping off mail and exchanging passengers.

A wonderful example of a roadway through a Gidyea (Gidgee) Tree stand where horses would have been readied for the change.

Site dates back to 1911.
