Location:

On the banks of the Macquarie River in the Central Tablelands of NSW, the vibrant regional centre of Bathurst is rich with history and gold rush heritage. With Mount Panorama-Whaluu rising in the distance, it’s also the home of Australian motor racing and a hotspot for motorsport enthusiasts.  

The elegant architecture and historic homes are on show around town, including the grand Bathurst Courthouse and Abercrombie House, a Scottish-baronial mansion from the 1870s.

The Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum boasts a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton and kids will love the miniature railway at the Bathurst Railway Museum. The Bathurst Regional Art Gallery is home to a wonderful collection of Australian paintings and contemporary artworks.    

Bathurst’s restaurants and cafes make the most of local produce. Brunch at Harvest Café and Store. Pizza and cocktails at Church Bar, set in a former Anglican schoolhouse; the Vine and Tap for contemporary Italian cuisine.   

Wine aficionados can discover the region’s cool-climate wines at cellar doors. Craft beer fans should make a beeline for Cosmo Brewing, while Stone Pine Distillery makes superb handcrafted spirits and Bathurst Grange produces whisky and gin using sustainable artisan practices

Technical details:

This Kaffee Kache is an interactive mystery geocache. It requires a smartphone. It is a unique way of stringing together virtual and physical waypoints. Thus, it is part virtual cache, part multicache, part puzzle cache, and part adventure lab. What more could one want?

A Kaffee Kache does not require any specific hardware or software - just internet access and a browser.  There is no need to download any Cartridge or App.

A Kaffee Kache also has a Teamwork attribute.  Because an Intercache works live across web-based activities, having a friend or two could save you the intricacies of internet drop-out or phone freeze should such happen in low-signal areas. 

This Kaffe Kache also has another web-based component: What3Words.   You can work What3Words directly from the website www.what3words.com    OR....

There is also an App for both Android and iPhone.  If you would like to use the What3Words App, then use THIS LINK. 

Documentation on using the Intercache platform is downloadable HERE.
