Our first time visiting here, the regeneration of this spot and town is amazing, the whole town is a hidden gem for sure, was a brief visit but we will definitely be back! This was a beautiful nature walk, the bird sounds were lovely to listen to, the info boards were great as well, Mr mooochie did somehow end up finishing the walk with a leech on him, but it didnt dampen the outlook. The log was a little damp, and the coordinates were a little off for us, but the hint was helpful. We possibly wouldnt have found this walk without the cache here either so TFTC
We finished up a long hike around Marysville by diverting to the beauty loop.It was worth it.This short walk shows off some stunning forest
Great little walk in the beautiful area. Note there is no need to leave the trail. The GPS coords are a little off. Log is a little damp. Tftc
Enjoying the many scenic walks around Marysville. This was an easy find for Ferg18 while looking out for the ever elusive wombats and lyrebirds! TFTC
Spent a nice few nights here in marysville, and went on some wonderful walks such as this one - TFTC!
So fun! Our crew found it easily once we thought about it! Thank goodness nana was here!!!
Found with Olga whilst in the area tracking down a special travel bug. Followed o6ut noses but failed to find. We read through some old logs and found it pretty quickly. Much better coordinates are S37 31.085 E145 44.680
We are staying in Marysville for a few days and it has been quite warm, so we set off early today to beat the heat to find this cache. We followed the pretty track and once we were nearby, GMelb followed the GPS to 0m. However he couldnt find anything matching the clue. We read back on logs and discovered we didnt actually need to leave the track at all. JMelb then spotted the cache. Our GPS said 10m, the phone said 14m. The logbook is in good condition, the ziplock bag could do with being replaced, sorry we didnt have any spares on us. After replacing the cache we continued on around the pretty track as the weather was still very mild so far.TFTC The Phant0m - GJMMelb
our GPS may have been a little off because eventually we realised wed walked past the location. oh well!
Staying with family I look forward to an early morning walk. Lovely little walk to enjoy the early morning sounds of nature. Nice easy find. Cache in ok condition. Thanks for bringing here The Phant0m
The bush here seemed a little tired today. Otherwise a nice little walk for the kids.
Found. Easier with clue. Considering the large black snake we saw at the start of the track best not to follow the compass to locate, which leads into the bush. TFTC
Found @12:15 on a lovely afternoon walk with the baby in the carrier. No need to follow the geotrails - it’s not off the path!
Took - wet swag and paper
Left - homemade swag

Nice quick find for team TAMELK today - didn’t linger as to avoid leeches. Bit moist inside the cache but that’s expected in such a place. Lovely spot and walk TFTC
After having the week off after ANZAC day my short trip away finished in Marysville with a catch up with friends at the caravan park.
Marysville is a beautiful spot which seems to have recovered really well after the devastating bushfires of 09.
I nice trail to walk and i took the longer loop to really enjoy the area.
The area looked beautiful and especially after all of the rain last light which was just under 40mm.
My GPS was bouncing all over the place and the description said i didnt need to leave the track so after reading a couple of previous logs and then the hint i soon had the cache in and added my name to the log.
Thanks The Phant0m TFTC.

Found with Marty, in fact he found without a hint). Nice short path with the longer loop of 20-40mins and the shorter one 10-20mins. We took the longer one. Didn't see many birds, but there were some crimson rosellas. Also saw some badger poop on the path and indeed they were a bit square
After dinner in Marysville, took a walk over here to allow the dinner to digest a little before going home. A lovely scenic spot, nice birdsong. Cache easily located.
Found a Rosy Hyacinth-orchid (I believe) a little further along the loop.
Thanks for the cache. A nice little park here.

I have a little set of draft logs that are not huge in number (22) but date back eight months. I can't remember what I was doing eight days ago let alone eight months, so am going to be efficient or pragmatic or lazy or something and do generic logs. Sorry about that. I do appreciate the efforts of all COs though and can definitely say a big TFTC
Hubby needed to burn some kilojoules to get a badge on his Apple Watch, so I steered him toward this loop track so that I could find a cache as well.
As we approached I was disheartened to see that the GPS was pointing me 15m into the thick bush. I said to hubby “I think I’ll leave it. I’m not traipsing into there”. As we walked away, something caught my eye and I felt it’d be silly not to investigate. Of course, the cache was there! Hoorah. Thanks for another smiley in a pretty spot.

What a lovely walk we wouldn't have known about it not for this cache. It threatened rain, but luckily it didn't rain. Thank goodness for the hint, because the gps wouldn't behave itself. Tftc.
This was really fun, thanks to the creator. Had a little trouble, but found it I the end
Had a bit of a trial finding this one. My GPS had me 23 m away. I walked up and back and then resorted to the hint, which gave me a better idea of where it was. What a beautiful peaceful area this is. TFTC️
I found this one at 09:10 while on a chilly but beautiful pre-brekky walk through this superb area. A nice quick find in such a great location all adds up to a fave point from me.
TNLNSL. Thanks The Phant0m.
**PS:** There was no sign of the *[MARJ01 Mystery Micro Geocoin](https://coord.info/TB4MA4C)* trackable in the cache.

Nice easy find on a relaxing walk.
Well, other than being surprised by a runner flying past as we were signing the log.

Yay for finally having a free iPhone app. Came for a walk with the family and mentioned there was a geo cache in the area. So we had a look around and ended up finding it which made us all pretty happy
Thanks The Phant0m. GPS was out a little bit but good hint. Camo-ed pretty well in the hidey hole.
The weather was not kind to us today but that didn’t put a dampener on our walk through this beautiful reserve
Cache found in good condition, without leaving the track
Many thanx to The Phant0m

Staying nearby for a wedding in the Yarra Valley tonight. After walking around the falls, we were keen on another shortish walk and this cache did the trick. A lovely little reserve, a little lizard near GZ turned out to be a budding model and made my insta feed. Thanks for the cache Na'wal.

A nice short walk after all the snow walking today. Got to the location and read the clue to work out whether we had to go off track or not, when I spotted the likely spot for it and there it was.
Today was about getting Ilukaperi’s 500th cache at Warburton, and then heading up to Cumberlan Creek, Marysville and then home via the Black Spur, picking up caches when we could. We had my daughter’s car, which used to be my wife’s car and was the very first car that I used to go caching with when I started caching, so it felt right.
By now we had finished at Cumberland falls and we were making our way back home, just grabbing caches that were close to the road as we had done enough walking and our jackets, beanies, gloves etc were soaked.
A really nice, enjoyable walk in to this one. GPS was a bit jumpy, but once we figured that we didn’t need to bush bash, Ilukaperi found the cache quickly. TFTC.

Very quiet here today nobody's around just nature's sounds found quickly signed and replaced...TFTC
Just as we pulled up to the trail head parking, 4 cars of muggles were heading off. We had the entire long loop to ourselves! Such a lovely spot, with a variety of foliage. Sadly, there are some invasive species as well. A quick find. Contents in good condition. Thank you for such an enjoyable stroll. Fav pt given TFTC
Visiting from Canada and spent an overnight in Marysville. Found this cache on an early morning walk.
Isaviv our 2nd on isa’s birthday & our 5th on this Luxury Escape to this beautiful courageous little town.tfc.
This was a beautiful walk in the late afternoon after a full day of caching. We loved strolling around these meandering paths, with ferns, birds singing, taking in the peace and quiet of our surroundings. Cache spotted and signed. Thanks The PhantOm for bringing us to this lovely area.
A group of us are staying at the Caravan Park, and after unloading cars we went for a short walk. Surprisingly few caches close to the town. This walk is well worth doing because of the beautiful bush ... trees, birds, sound of the creek. A good start to the Grand Final weekend.
Found this with red Sox and team redkilla on 9/6/18 had a great walk here with my buddy’s such a beautiful spot was busy here
Keeping up the beautiful whether and Avro still out with maximus1978, and seen these, so why not we where on a mission Thankyou co
Found 18/4 with Dicksontwo after the mandatory coffee at the Marysville Bakery. The track to find this cache led us through a lovely bush walk with informative boards about the local fauna. Thanks for the cache, finding it gave us some good exercise!
We are visiting lovely Marysville with a group. We and Rogdel are the only geocachers in the group and we took some time out to hunt for few. This was our third today at 11.45, after coffee, of course! What a great walk, we really enjoyed it and so glad you placed the cache where you did, PhantOm, thank you TNLNSL
Found with Chooknchunk while in the area. We enjoyed the walk vey much. Lots of animal tracks spotted but no actual wombats. Thanks for the hide coords not as far out as some have said.
On our way to the annual Buller Getaway with wozzle68, we decided to add an extra day and spend a night in Marysville so we could all explore the area in a bit more detail than our last respective visits. After checking in at the Caravan Park, we went for a drive up to Keppels Lookout, then came back down to enjoy this lovely nature walk in the late afternoon. We had the place to ourselves and it was so peaceful and beautiful. We took our time to enjoy the whole walk, stopping for lots of photos and literally smelling the roses (even though there were none of those). Cache found easily and replaced carefully. TFTC and for bringing us here The Phant0m.
