Geocache Description:


Welcome to Benny's Bridge

In the 1930’s, during the Great Depression, there were a number of homeless men living in caves along Nowra Creek below the escarpment. Mr Ernest Walsh (Ben), came up with the idea to provide these homeless men with employment by having them assist him to build a walk to link the Showgrounds above the escarpment to West Nowra. This walk was named ‘Ben’s Walk’.
The original suspension bridge was erected in this location when a young girl drowned attempting to cross the river in a small boat to reach her neighbours property. It has since been rebuilt twice. Most recently in 2015 and is perfectly safe and fun to cross.
