Castle Hill Heritage Rogans Hill, New South Wales, Australia

Its time to release the area for other cashes. Lets hope that they are bigger than a micro

Disabled until I check out the situation at GZ... again. Yes the cache may need to be shifted a little.

After enjoying the stroll up the hill to GZ we spotted the offending piece of damp furniture straight away. Upon further inspection we found some beer bottles and some bongs. Goodness knows what the locals get up to around here. We looked around a bit more but decided to admit defeat on this one. This is a fantastic park for hiding caches, it is a shame that this cache is located in a seedy part of the park which is no longer kid friendly. Perhaps it might be worth moving it to a new location within the park grounds? Thanks anyway Rogpol.

Just ran out of time!!

Cache check completed.
Locals have left a rather large and now damp piece of furniture adjacent to GZ.
The caching trail is still there despite the growth of the weeds

Couldn't find it... suspect its lost... can someone confirm?

Found with Saf23 and TomBEE. Some council works going on, but managed to avoid raising suspicion. TFTC!

If only the $50 was real TFTC

Found with Saf23 and JPWK.

Found it on the 26th and forgot to log. Thanks for the cache.

Hot day caching. We were rewarded by a beautiful wonderful breeze at the top of the hill. TFTC.

Enjoyed visiting this park and watching our two children race each other to the top of the hill. TFTC.

I suck at night geocaching but nice and easy

eassssssy and in the dark! great fun, a few spider webs, but all good!

Nice easy find by geogirl7 (the ground squirrel),tftc.

Great cache.

4th day on holiday around Sydney. Really enjoying the good weather and fun caches. Soon had this one located. SL TFTC

1124am, GAFF1 #6 for the day. A nice walk up the hill from Billys Playground, geoson soon had CIH.

Cache in good condition, SL. TFTC rogpol

This was a great little area. I made my way up toward GZ.. thankfully GZ had not a muggle to be seen.. leaving me to search in peace.

After a bit of an examination of GZ, I came up with the cache. It was in good condition but a tadly exposed. I tried to re-hide it a little beter so it doesn't get found. I took some time to read the nearby signs as well on the way back. TFTC Paulw1

Nice park but a bit steep climb to drag a pram and our 3 year old. Nice find in the end.

Enjoyed it with leosoul and our 3 year old muggle son who equally enjoys caching TFTC

What a lovely park! TFTC

Nice walk in the park surrounded by bell birds. TNLNSL TFTC

Nice walk to historic area of castle Hill.. Had to wait for nearby guitar playing suspected muggle to disappear before beginning our search lol..Easy find - but no Geowoodstock Vll geocoin to be found . Found with misunderstoodwombat. Took US 1cent put ginger opener.

Found this one pretty quick and sat to enjoy the view of suburbia with breatheinandout. Very nice place and great cache!

Good exercise walking up here. Thanks. SL.

We headed out this way on a nice sunny day.... kids made it ok on the walk up the big hill! Thanks for the cache and the great views! No TBs present.

A very tidy historic location with two caches only a short walk apart. Cache in good order. Took fluffy TB. TFTC.

Nice morning stroll, had to avoid all the doggie landmines, keeping to the path until the last possible. Dropped in TB couldn't arrange for Olivia to meet Ozzie. Hey it would have been good if it was Saturday night, but it would have been os'trich.

Reperio at 1320. After grabbing 'Billy's Playground', I headed on up to this one to enjoy the views of the surrounding area before wandering over to locate the cache. The history here is wonderful, and the area is kept so well.

Gratias.

Another great cache in the park . Cheers

another beautiful park in the hills tftc

Nice n easy, TNLN TFTC

Great spot for a cache. Found whilst talking a walk with the family on Mothers day. Took 2 TBs and kids made some small swaps, TFTC.

Great walk and lovely location. Had fun. Dropped two trackballs including our first one

TFTC - TN Left Snoopy

Monocle finally found one! her first for the day. The rest of The Squints were beginning to have their doubts about her ability.

Found it in no time. TYFC. Sat on top of hill while read and signed log book. Took Shrek Gingerbread man, Left Elle Hair Clips and FAKE $50 Aus bill. Beautiful Park

Found without too much trouble, didnt even know this park existed. TFTC

Ok we knew this park from the last time but somehow we missed it.
So with the clue yet to be said my Geo boy MattKwashere> said I bet I know were it is!!!
Sure enough he was correct HCIH very fast with all the paper work completed and the swapping done.
This is a great park and hide as we went past the Well I told scary stories of the convicts that used to live here.[{:)]
We are done for the day.

Our 1st visit to the park. Kids had a blast in the park and doing thier swaps. We were even rewarded by seeing a wee echidna wandering around - delightful!

Found by Nanny and Bo on a warm Tuesday afternoon.
A pleasant walk through this newish park.
A classic older stype cache, our favorite type.
Signed log.
Took nothing. Left nothing.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice excuse for a wander - the bellbirds are fantastic in this park. Much easier than Billy's Playground too - sat and enjoyed the views for a while. Thanks again rogpol.

Easy:)

Thanks for bringing us here, beautiful park...TFTC

Remove the only bug in the cache, nice walk,
Meow for now

I have moved away from Castle Hill, so if anyone would like to adopt this cache, send me a message.

Sitting inside on a very lightly raining afternoon with the Vanpires - Chook decided to see who wanted to do a geocache. After convincing everyone that an umbrella would be all that was needed, we set off for the park. Chook tried to ignore the fact that the window wipers were needed so much on the journey. A barely enthusiastic group got out of the car and put up umbrellas. Chook's umbrella blow inside out - should have seen that as a sign, but nevertheless, we pushed on at her insistence. Up the hill to the cache and it was a quick find, leaving Harro a little wet and the Vanpires unusually asking not to do any more caches today.

A good cache in an interesting park that I never knew about until now.
SL TNLN TFTC

Cache is in good condition.
Left geotriad coin and signed log book.

Nice easy find, TFTC

Grabbed the Shark coin in preparation to take it over to the USA soon.

TFTC SLLN

Thanks for bring me to be there - real interesting about history - enjoyed wander around the park. Took TB. Signed the log. Thanks paulw11.

Well hidden cache with lots of treasure. There were lots of spiders and lizzards out today. Thanks for the cache!

We were down in Sydney for the weekend to watch the finals of the Medibank International tennis, so decided to do some caching as well. We found out later that we could have parked much closer to this one, but what the heck - we need the exercise! We walked down a steep hill then back up another steep hill before we got to GZ. Once near GZ we conducted our search. It took us a little while but we eventually found the hiding place. Dropped off the VB TB and signed the log. TFTC

Team Bullfrog.

Never knew this park was in here.

Left Plastic Dragon and a hot wheels car. Took the plastic ants.

Thanks for the cache.

Easy find....tftc

out with the geoteen on the way to netball(good warm up going up hill) nice quick find. didn't even need the gps after reading previous logs! SL...Left dwarf(dopey?) took mirror. definately no travel bugs in there!!!!! TFTH

Nice find after work out with buskin, took gum left hand painted art. Tftc

Found it, TFTC. No TB's found in cache.

Took a while to find, only found it because we thought it was hidden somewhere else and I saw it out of the corner of my eye. No TBs inside.

Tried this one about a week ago and had no luck. Returned today and after widening the search area quickly spotted someting not right.

Nice spot to watch the thunder storm rolling in today.

TFTC

teamed up with iveski! good day for a walk in the park TFTC

Great hide, had our very first encounter with a fellow geocacher (CJOH2255 I think) who was in the park with kids and realised what we were up to behind the tank
We will be off to Dural soon for Nano in the park and Elouera!!

Here is the first of my 10/10/10 contribution! Found this with family and the dog on a lovely sunny afternoon =)

Nice stroll around Heritage Park.TFTC

Enjoyed finding this cache in the 'late' sunlight on the first day after daylight savings time change. Just as we were leaving the area, we met Team Canary coming up the hill. The geokids had fun playing in the playground before we left the park. TFTC

This was a nice easy find with a lovely outlook.

We were lucky enough to meet another cacher, this time Froglog and his tadpoles. This was our first cacher meeting in the wild for a while!

TNLNSL. TFTC.

Nice quick find in a busy park for a wet public holiday. TFTC

Thanks

After Billy's Playground cache, checked and this one was a little stroll (or run) up the hill in the rain. Quick search and clue and BAM. Great cache, nicely hidden. Took Panda bear and left pedometer. SL. TFTC

Nice park. I've not been here before despite living close, so thanks. A break in the rain at just the right time. TNLN TFTC.

No muggles in park today as it is rainning, thanks for the hint and thanks for bringing me here to this beautiful park.
Cheers

Finally! My first find of the day! Keep up the good work! TFTC

I let my brother find this one.TFTC

This was an interesting park we'd never been to before. We told Garks he was on GPS duty and he had to find it. After much deliberation and a clue from NickoHeap, he did. Thanks

I love these historic parks- so mauch heritage to mshare and wide open spaces. Garks found this one on behalf of the team. TFTC

Easy find with The Craey Clan
Dropped off a TB thatwe brought back from the UK
TFTC

This one was easy and fun - and educational!
I work only a couple of hundred metres away from this spot, and yet had no idea it existed! It has a good playground, and clean toilets too - bonus.
Made small swaps.
Thankyou

Last for the day and in the rain. No trackables in the container. It would be nice here in the summer time.
Made swaps and headed back to the warm and dry car.
TFTC SL.

Found on a lovely sunny afternoon. We were having a family birthday in the park.

Awesome cache first time for my mate. He loved it too.

Great spot in a great park that we probably wouldn't have ever known about if not for the cache. Excitedly found by the Geocousins. Dropped TB. Thanks for the cache.

Nice stroll and nice history in this park. TFTC (416)

Thanks what a lovely park!

Another easy find once I got to GZ, bit of a hike to get there but once you get to GZ turn around, one amazing view Signed the log took the Diabetes '07 coin and dropped in a portable screwdriver set and a keyring. TFTC

Hi Geocachers
I left a diabetes geocoin in this cache, but when I logged it, I must have done something wrong - and now I don't have the tracking number. If you pick it up, please send it on its way with the number properly tracked. At the moment, the coin is listed as being in Gulgong Tour.
Thanks from Socks

We found it!! Our first cache..kikin ass

Caution. The hill looks small. But it isn't!!! Fun find. It was my first and won't my last. Meow for now

Great easy find apart from the walk there LOL.

Left TB Geocoin.

TFTC

A climb to the top, well worth it for the view, even if a little puffed!!

A great place for a very well hidden cache

Left TB Morse Code

Tks ..... Paulw11 ...... GazMag

Found it - my 150th find. Left a diabetes geocoin. This is a lovely park. TFTC

It was a beautiful afternoon so the park was busy. Fortunately the area around GZ was quiet so we could search without interruption. After a short hunt the hide was revealed. We loved the park TFTC paulw11. [590]

Found without too much trouble. Don't fiddle with the large pieced of 'equipment' to find the cache. There's a more traditional hiding spot within a few metres of the obvious 'landmark' that will bring you success! Thanks to Paulw11 for this one.
