Geocache Description:


For a lovely walk with great coastal views we decided to place a few caches along this track.

"The track is part of the Clarence Coastal Trail and traverses the coast between Cremorne Beach and Mays Beach. The track is 4.5km in length between Cremorne Beach Park and southern end of Mays Beach. A further kilometre along Mays Beach will take walkers to Bayside Drive, if a car shuffle has been arranged. From the track are spectacular views across Frederick Henry Bay to Primrose Sands and Tasman Peninsula.

The Moomairremener people of the Oyster Bay Nation lived seasonally along the coast, prior to white settlement. The May family purchased property in 1874 and Mays Point, Mays Beach and Mays Hill are named after them. The family had orchards and grew apples, pears and cherries. A wharf at Mays Beach was used to ship the fruit to market. The coastal strip is now public land." (taken from greaterhobarttrails)

The track passes through the Calverts Hill Nature Reserve which is managed by Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service. The Calverts Hill Nature Reserve is home to the rare and endangered eucalyptus morrisbyi. At the moment dogs are not allowed on this part of the track (this is being negotiated). The track through the Reserve is an informal track and is unsurfaced and rough in places. There may also be stock grazing.

Please supervise children as the track follows the coastline and there are drop offs and water (dams) in some places. 

Please watch out for muggles and rehide as found.

There is a FTF pin for the first finder to take.
