Description

Yarrie Lake is a jewel in the usually hot, dry inland of NSW, bordering on the Pilliga Scrub.  It is  a 3km saucer-shaped expanse of water thought to have been formed by a falling meteor many thousands of years ago.

 

It is appreciated by the locals of both Narrabri and Wee Waa - two towns each less than half an hour’s drive away.  


Water skiing, swimming and picnicking are favourite past times here. Camping, both powered and unpowered, sites are available.  You can walk right around the lake but not drive as there is only a footbridge across the wetlands.  You could however cycle. Now you can cache as well as there are a few caches scattered throughout the bush. One day the trail might extend the whole way. 

Enjoy your caching but don’t forget to carry water even though the path is mostly shaded.

The lake was quite high after recent rains and we couldn't get right around the likely hide at GZ. Hope it is still there for future finders Sad

Lots of water here....and it was lapping at the base of GZ. Try as we did, we couldn't make a find on this one. SadSad

Thanks anyway SG....maybe next time, whenever that maybe.
