Description
A beautiful bush track winding along a ridge with fabulous views of the coast. The Postman's Track has different vegetation and scenery and is more sheltered than some of the other walks in the Rocky Cape National Park. It is easy walking. Getting to GZ will not take long (15-20mins?) from the south. If you walk the whole track to Sisters Beach (or vice versa) it will take 1hr. The track may be accessed from the north and south.
Southern end parking is at: S40 55.652 E145 35.303.
This is a National Park, so you will need a Parks Pass. Dogs and bicycles not permitted.

Note: Due to problems with having a physical cache at this location, and a high level of maintenance for a very low number of visitors, I have decided that, rather than archive this cache I have changed it into a virtual. This means that everyone can still enjoy the Postmaster and grab a find on this lovely walking path.
To log this cache, all you need to do is take a photo of yourself/friends/mini cachers or your GPSr in front of the Postmaster.
Logs
Had stopped to do this cache on a previous occasion but due to time constraints I drove away. Today however, the walk was undertaken.
A great walk through the bush with terrific coastal views.
Found the Post Master but no Post Office!
Sainted the cache at 1153hrs.
Then straight up the hill to find 'Two Sisters Trig'
TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.
We "over-shot" the mark by 60 metres and had to do a back-track.
Perhaps my solar panel (see gallery) was over charged ...
