Welcome to
The Ponds Walk
This is one of a number of caches placed along or near The Ponds Walk.
The walk starts at Mobbs Hill in Carlingford and travels over 7 kilometres of paths and bush tracks to Crowgey Reserve in Rydalmere. During the walk you will travel through Sydney Turpentine Ironbark Forest and be surrounded by native birds and wildlife - I spotted Kookaburras and Water Dragons while placing this cache.
For more information on this walk (and others) see the Parramatta Council website.
This Wherigo is a reverse cache.
This means that you can use it anywhere and it will tell you how far from GZ you are. Unfortunately it doesn't tell you the direction, so you have to take multiple readings. The good news, however, is that the distance gets more accurate the closer you get. Get close enough and it will give you the coordinates for GZ.
This cache uses the Wherigo cartridge made by Waldmeister.
If you have never downloaded this cartridge, or haven't in the last few months, you can FIND IT HERE.
When prompted by the cartridge, you will be required to enter these three six digit codes:
613266
480036
565001
Simple!
Now go out there, hunt it down and sign the physical log. Oh, and feel free to let us know, in your electronic log, how many guesses you needed to make.
This geocache was part of GC Project: It's Raining Caches 2025.
The project's aim was to create a rain of new geocaches that would fall from the sky across the state of NSW at 9am on 19th January 2025 - 1 week before Sydney Geoquest, the first Block Party in the Southern Hemisphere.
Many legendary hiders came together to generously contribute their finest geocaches to build excitement and connection amongst the community and for all finders to enjoy years after the event.
This geocache helped make it rain.
