Geocache Description:


We acknowledge the Gayamagal People, the Traditional Owners and Custodians of these lands.

North Head, traditionally known as Car-rang-gel, has enduring significance for the Gayamagal People. 
The Koradgee (medicine men and women healers) occupied the area intermittently and performed highly spiritual and cultural ceremonies and rituals.

This magnificent location was also one of Sydney’s most heavily fortified military sites and played a significant role in the national chain of coastal defence, with a series of military installations and a large network of underground tunnels.

Footpaths and bike tracks are open sunrise to sunset. The Visitor Centre is open from 10am to 3pm daily. The nearby Bella Vista cafe is open weekdays 9am - 4pm and weekends 8am - 5pm. For more information, maps, tours, parking, transport etc please visit https://www.harbourtrust.gov.au/en/see-and-do/visit/north-head-sanctuary/

Location: The cache is located at the Northern Lookout, just off the path that is part of the Bondi to Manly walk https://www.bonditomanly.com/  It is easily accessible without leaving the walkway, no need to step on any plants or disrupt the natural beauty. Stealth is required, especially on the weekend. This place can get pretty busy and muggles can appear suddenly down the path. Enjoy the nice view of North Harbour and the Northern Beaches.

The Cache: The target is a bison tube inside larger camo. Please bring your own pen.  Please replace exactly as found, with the cache fully inserted and the camo in place.

Please do not post spoiler photos. Contact the CO if you need any extra help with this cache.

We hope you enjoy our first geocache placement.
