Barossa Trail #79 Rowland Flat, South Australia, Australia
By LíB on 22-Sep-16. Waypoint GC6N24H

After the last few, this was a very quick and easy find on a cool but sunny afternoon on a Friday!TFTC

Found after being dropped off at the northern end of the Barossa Trail in a quest to cycle from Barossa Trail #79 and getting picked up at Barossa Trail #64, before going to lunch at the Lyndoch Hotel. Had to wait for an age here, before some cyclists headed off from the area before making the find. Thanks for the cache and series LB!

Out in the Barossa with Shumba7 on the electric geoscooter and euc. TFTC.

TFTC found after riding the Barossa Rail Trail the day before with Algae. We then went out on my electric scooter and his electric one wheel ABs grabbed these caches. I had to w walk a couple of the up hills a bit to steep for my scooter. we also stopped at Jacobs winery for some tasters, and to Kiers to do some more testers, and b rough some port, and then finally the lavender farm to buy some smellies. Thanks for placing and maintaining these caches for us to find.

Our 100th cache! TFTC

Thanks so much it was great fun. There were so many ants and I was in thongs .

Took me awhile to find but very fun and cool. This is number 6 for me.

ThanksFTC, from Noosaville QLD

Found with SPINBNZ Team Nice easy find thanks for this cache in this gorgeous valley LB

Went for a short walk after tea and grabbed a couple of caches. Easy find. tftc#7894

Thanks!

We were a little short of time but hoping to find an earthcache today for a souvenir. We found our nearest earthcache only about 20km away on this very scenic Barossa Trail where we could possibly nab a couple of other traditionals as we passed by on the way to the earthcache.We parked at the closest road near St Halletts Winery and quickly found the first cache at the start of this part of the trail.Many thanks for the hide LB

Cute container good camo- easy find with yummy az eats Tftc

First of the day, hopefully many to come.

Loved it

Last of the Barossa Trail series I collected before heading to my next wine producing area just to the north. Too many caches to collect in the area, without the unwanted distraction of all the cellars. Next visit I need to stay a good week and in more hospitable weather conditions to cache and wine. I'm amazed about these cold weather thunder storms. Thanks again LíB for your efforts in putting this series together.

Out and about again, expecting a wet day but hasn’t eventuated yet. Therefore got out of town and headed to the Barossa Valley.

Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today

Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

out for a wander with Eartlight, LiB and AllisterW collecting and maintaining some caches with the CO.
We picked the perfect day for this wander. The sun was shining and the day was clear

Found with the CO, travellingbees and earthlight while we were on a maintenance walk

Found with Shonky and Uni on a biking day in the Barossa. Some were easy, some hard, and some just no luck for us today. It was hot, dry and we obviously left our geo mojo's home today.

Thanks for the cache
Cheers and Happy Hinting

Southern Cross Caching

Set out on a bicycle ride with Uni and Medusa, and Southern Cross Caching.
Uni cheated because he had 2 wheels like us.
The day was hot, the caches mostly difficult and there were a lot of places where we just gave up because we were worried about snakes or dehydration.
Note to self, don't go bicycle caching on hilly terrain when the weather is above 22 degrees...

Found at 11:11 am


Uni, Shonky and SXC headed out to the Barossa to complete the bike trail series, and any other cache in the area which we came across.

Quick first find of the day on my ride back home.

A nice quick find with X pom 66 after visiting the Hallet winery

Found it with Flossy Teacake

Took a while . Got it in the end

Day fifteen of our short South Australian trip with BettyBoo3747 and the geo-doggies.
Our first day in Tanunda. Unloaded the deadly treadlies, loaded the doggies in their trailer and set of for the first part of the Barossa Trail. (well, actually the last part numerically!)
Back to base for lunch, then a wander through historic Tanunda in the afternoon.

The first on the trail. Fortunately, a quick find (fluked it!)
Now to see what this trail actually looks like.
Thanks, Robmc.

#19264. Day 15 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. Our first full day in Tanunda (and already we have extended our 3 night stay to 5). With a fine day forecast we decided to hop on the bikes with the doggies in tow and do the windy bit of the Barossa Trail, starting at #79 and finishing on the road at #62. Such a wonderful trail with fabulous scenery and great caches. A morning well spent. Back to base for lunch and an afternoon walk into town.

First one on the trail this morning and a good hide. Then we remembered we were doing LiB caches and they were bound to be sneaky and tricky and worth finding (if we could). Off to a good start here.

Thanks LíB

Nice easy one to start the day

Second try - Jayla find for Shackas and Special K.

Another cache found with richli k on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
It is a beautiful day in the Barossa perfect for a ride on the Barossa Trail and picking up other caches along our route. Thanks for the effort in placing and maintaining these caches LiB.

Found by Mary and David at at 16:55. Hooray - we managed 1 out of three in this series today, and M found that one. The year that our son was born in Canberra. Our thanks to LíB.

Found out euc riding with friends.

Rocking on to the next one. Second day in SA and out on trusty treadles aka my mtb to explore the trails and surroundings. Had no intention of doing so many but these quality caches piqued the curiosity and anticipation of another surprise or fun cache. Happy and relieved to record no DNF’s and on average most were located ‘relatively’ quickly. TFTC AND THE FUN and the effort to contribute to this fave game!

Really fun

Another quick find at a point of interest. TFTC

Thanks

Great location on a beautiful days ride. Found with Jarh.

Easy find, no problems TFTC

Fun find with kids

I arrived excited to start the trail and within a minute it was raining and the youngest geo grandson fell off his scooter rather heavily. We found the first cache then started for home. We'll wait for another day to complete more of the trail. TFTC

We had arrived back to where we started the day and felt very good with ourselves. We had been on a walk and maybe paid off one of the three bottles we had enjoyed from last night. All the caches on the trail are different and we haven’t come across a similar hide yet. We are still here for a few more days and so hope to tick off quite a few more. tftc

Good hide but watch out for the earwigs.

My very first find! Thanks ao much

Found with fellow cacher, she popped her caching cherry

Nice easy hide thanks

Out for a walk in the area with some caching along the way. TFTC!

Very cool geocache, was stumped for quite a while!! But eventually found it.

Found !! So cool

Replaced log

Aha! Staying nearby so thought I’d try tackling this trail. Quick find to start my search . Tftc

I get the feeling someone works in a lab. Cute eppendorph. Tftc

This was a nice easy find. Just getting a taste for some caching along this track. Haven’t got much time today. Tftc

Found on a lovely morning in the Barossa with Mr Cupcake. TFTC. Signed log as MG.

Great day out in the Barossa. Found with Guz's Travellers. Signed log as MG. TFTC.

Today I was back out this way again after completing the some of the Jack Bobridge Trail the other day, with only one section left a nice walk was had along the trail till this was pretyy much completed.

Despite the heat, 7km walked and some great caches that were well made were found.

Thanks for the cache

I’ve started here to find a cluster of four, and only now at home reading OZGrumpy’s note do I realize that this cache is the north end of the trail. Well that’s a bummer! Fortunately I still have plenty left to find at the other end. Great series, thanks LíB.

And there we have it. The northernmost hide in the series, right in a quick and easy spot. Thanks for the cache and the series LiB. The book is full here, I tore a sheet from a spare book I had, and rolled it around the original, just a make-shift effort, will need something more with a dozen more finds. Congrats on the series, I will remember these for a long time, some very cunning hides, some of which I am still to find at the southern end.

Real ezz

Tftc - woo

Found another one and the weather has cleared up. Thanks Lìb

Day 437 ( Sunday 8th ) of our trip. Caching along the way, in Greenock today. Going to finish off the Barossa trail run we started last time we were here. TFTC

Quick and easy find, sneaky. TFTC.

First for the day and easy find. Thanx

Found it

Cute find

Nice

4/10

Nice

A fantastic bike ride in a place where I can’t drink for another 11 years. A great day finding caches with Csaba!, Malco! and SupaOrange. So many different hides made the day SupaFun. Turtle Out

On the bikes with SupaTurtle, Malco! and Csaba!. Sooooooooo many ups and downs on this section. We found most caches and spent too much time looking at others. Tra La Laaa

Huge day out on the trail with Malco!, SupaOrange and SupaTurtle. We had planned to smash the rest of this series today but will be back another day for the rest. With the bikes ready to go we hit the trail. We found most of the amazing caches but a few DNF’s along the way. Thanks

Riding the JB Trail with Csaba!, SupaOrange and SupaTurtle.

Beaut day on the trail. Dusted off the old bike, pumped up the tyres and adjusted the brakes.

All set. Did the last section from Roland Flat, through Jacobs Creek and the finals of the series.

Found most but a few defeated us leaving us with a reason to return.

Thanks for this great series, LiB

A big bike ride along through the vineyards, but unfortunately no wine today! Some very tricky and sneaky caches found between rain showers. A fun day out with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) ! TFTC!

Today with COVID-19 social isolation requirements in effect, I headed out with [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) to ride a section of the Jack Bobridge Trail around Rowlands Flat for our fitness. The weather was pretty bad with intermittent rain showers, and I thought we had beaten the morning heavy stuff, but we did get caught out a couple of times before it eased off. It was very quiet in the Barossa Valley today with all the wineries all shut, which just added to the sadness of the current environment. We ended up completing the #62 to #79 section in a few hours, with some well constructed and nicely camouflaged caches found.

Our final cache before we had to U-turn, and sure enough, it was a cache hide that we were quite familiar. A CO favourite perhaps? The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [@LíB](http://coord.info/PR8KEM6) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found thanks

TFTC. the final in the run - what a big day we have had. Now to ride to Nuriootpa

Tftc

Great day for caching, cheers cobber

Great sneaky little hide here, but found after a bit of searching! Starting here today with HRH54 TFTC

Sneaky hide Took 4 sets of caching eyes awhile until finally had in hand. Out biking with Juju54 This is our 1st for the morning TFTC

Found with the family after having a sip just up the road

At the very start of a long string of funds hopefully.

Enjoying biking this trail and finding some of the series. This was the end of my geocaching bike ride today. It took a bit of looking and thinking but found it, so a good finish! Thanks LiB for this challenging series of high quality caches. Greetings from New Zealand.

Quick find by one of our minicachers. TFTC Jones Family

Tricky very tricky

A great trail, only got a handful of caches today as the hides were harder than I anticipated, will definitely have to come back to complete. TFTC

There was even a seat to sit on while signing the log.
Thank you for the cache.

Enjoyed an afternoon's walk along the trail
TFTC

We were in need of some exercise and decided to take a stroll on this trail today. With all the interruptions (we saw butterflies, foxes and parrots galore, they all came out of the woodworks on this day for some reason), we ended up spending a good couple of hours here, a trip well worth the effort This was our first of six finds. TNLNSL TFTC

The section #64-79 we walked in reverse order as that was only place we could find safe parking. This was a quick find as we started the trek.
