Description
The Liawenee canal connects Lake Augusta and the Great lake in the Tasmanian central highlands. Since the late 1800’s, trout have been grown in Tasmania and the lakes of the central highlands are stocked with Rainbow and Brown Trout as well as Atlantic salmon. Annually, the fish migrate from the Great Lake to Lake Augusta via the Liawenee canal.
This loaction prvovides great views of the canal. Although not deep (today) the water was fast flowing. Please be safe and sensible.
Access road/gate from Lake Augusta Road is S41 53.833 E146 37.517

Was on the way back from a job at Ouse when i noticed this one pop up on the gps, looked and noticed it still hadn't been found yet i thought i'd have a go for the first to find, following the canal until the gate mentioned, thought i may have to walk from the gate however i noticed there was no sign saying that i couldn't drive in there and the gate just happened to not be locked i thought what the heck i'll just drive to cache, opened the gate and drove in, i got all the way until 5m from cache, jumped out and found the cache fairly quickly, canal had a little bit of water flowing today. signed the log with the FTF @ 12.15pm TFTC
