I looked and looked but could not find your cache today. Pity it looks to be in an awesome spot. Ned had his helmet bent down today too. Ill be back
Just travelling through and since we needed to swap drivers, we pulled in to find another cache in this lovely town. Tftc
Lovely town good find by ned Kelly obsessed geo daughterThank you for placing hwre
My eldest Geo kid was only just now speculating that the Kelly gang may have made an appearance in Euroa.Great find this one as we stop over for lunch on the way north to Corowa.Good condition. Thanks.
Find 359 on 28 March 2024Found on our way to Capital Geobash. Found last year but I did not have a account so came back for itTFTC Bingley3683
Nice hide thats not tiny as many are in this type of location.Wouldnt have know about the history of this building without another cache making us travel off the beaten track.TFTC
Wow, what a fascinating bit of history this is. Loved it.Found on my wander exploring this quaint little town of Euroa. Found in the second place I looked. Thanks for hiding a cache at this iconic bank!
A random fellow geocacher was watch as I searched. She came over & congratulated me. Woohoo
This is my first time visiting this town. You can just about feel the history... very cool place to have a cache. I was initially worried about the D rating and wondered if I should have that second morning coffee before attempting my find. But with the street very quiet, I happened to find it in the first place I looked .. and scored myself a pathtag, which made me very happy..
Quick stop on the way home today with isopeda. Stopped in this town for a break so collected a trad while here. Tftc
barb2e and I are on a ling drive home and needed to stretch our legs, so we decided to drop into town. A Ned Kelly cache was just the ticket. Quick find between waves of muggles. TFTC
Stopped for a pic of the big magpie and found a cache, so Ausyowie decided to check for other nearby caches. A very quick find as the area was completely muggle free.
Not many muggles today as Malipara guessed the location on approach. Not too sticky, thanks Bingley.
Apologies for the delayed log. Was driving through on my way to Thredbo and a week long hike with a friend as he completed the Australian Alpine Walking Trail. This one took me entirely too long to find, poking around in a few wrong places before finally realising where it was located. Finally discovered, and found in good condition. TFTC!
Camping at nearby Longwood, but headed into Euroa with RoamingHowie to explore the local icecream shop.RH was kind enough to stop here so I could add my name to the logbook he'd already signed.Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Bingley3683 ~~
We visited the arboretum this morning for walk and to by some plants for home. Afterwards we had lunch at one of the local bakeries before grabbing this cache. I love visiting any historical sites and any Kelly history in particular. Nice and quiet here this afternoon so we managed to find sign and return with no problems.TFTC.
Nice easy find...good time of day at 10am on a Wednesday so no people around.
Surprisingly large cache so added a little chess piece and a mini playing card for Ned to keep watch over

Visiting Euroa today on our way to Melbourne for the supercar races this weekend. Got a pie from the bakery that was delish and snapped a photo of the big magpie. Tftc
This cache was one found on a trip away with Flintstone's for 4 days. We had the Geotour in Ballarat as our target, and made our way as far as Queenscliff.
Ballarat caching was a joy, and with the tour, we saw many lovely and interesting locations as well as stopping for many other caches as we passed. Lots of little walks helped with the colder first few days as well as being quite scenic.
A change of weather and scenery towards Queenscliff but the coast was a great place to visit with plenty to do and see. As always, more to do than there was time for, will just have to return one day! Thank you for your cache!
Overthought this and the difficulty originally, until another hide looked likely and quickly came up with a cache!
Easy find on a quiet but sunny Sunday! So happy to be on this historical site today! TFTC
As we were cruizin' through I thought I would take Cruz and left a cunning fox just like Ned. Tftc
Found with onthrun on a not too muggly, nice and sunny day. On our way to Port Macquarie.
We love getting to learn about historical things, especially towns with so much history. This was a nice cache in a beautiful quiet town as a train passed us by. Thanks for the cache!!
We decided to revisit Euroa with pinnacle333 and look around the town again, as we were staying at Bonnie Doon.
Easy find. I love the history of the place, thanks Bingley3683.

Euroa is an area that we often drive through but has never been a destination. This Kings birthday long weekend we made it our destination to tick off some caches in the area
Nice easy find

Making our way to Mansfield for a 10km run (what was I thinking), taking the long way to grab a few caches.
Such history in this little town. Love the old buildings and parks. Will come back another time to explore further

Visiting from Ohio, USA and driving around enjoying Australia in a campervan. Got this one while riding my folding geobike around town. Not a bad night hide!
TFTC. Bingley3683 for your cache Stick 'em up! that we found today.
We are staying at our daughter’s farm block just about mid way between Shepparton and Violet Town. A lovely start to to the week with sunshine. Went out driving to Longwood and then back via Euroa, caching as we went. It has been a longtime since we have been this way. We did a stint at a BlazeAid camp in Longwood after fires and I (Hans) had done many miles cycling out this way.
All caches were found in good order and mostly quickly.
Find Count: 16295

Found on our way to Rutherglen. It was a mad dash from Ballarat to make our accomodation but we made it. While dinner was being cooked around the corner we opened the phone and saw there was a cache only 40m away.
Nice quick find in the dark which afforded us some good cover.
All is well with the cache.

Thanks heaps, Bingley3683!

Found immediately, so wondering about the D rating and maybe things have changed in over 10 years. Hey! I’m not complaining. It was a good start to my ca hung in Euroa. FTC.
Second day of caching doing some local searching with the kids this is fun. Added a swap with Mingan 2023
Luckily we were here in the afternoon of a public holiday so there weren't many people around. I initially thought it must be somewhere else but once I readjusted I quickly spotted the cache safely tucked away. Thanks for the hide and for highlighting an interesting piece of local and Australian history.
We followed the advice and as I was reading the information I had a sneaky 'found it' from geodaughter. Found with emu_ninja. TFTC
dalerious and I were out and about before dawn this morning after enjoying the night with our friends .
We had limited sleep but wanted to go out caching, and as we work Sunday afternoon our trip had to be close to home.
Euroa was picked, and as I had quite a few caches there to find and sign, I was happy with that choice.
All caches were found in good condition .
An unexpected quick find here I am grateful to say, and all without prying eyes upon me .
Thank you Bingley3683.

After a cup of coffee we wandered down main street. At the end we found the bank and soon after that the cache. Even on a Monday morning there are a lot of muggles.
Thanks for the cache

After visiting Melbourne for work, I decided to take a more scenic detour back home. This was the sixth stop for the day and I was left amazed at the beauty of the surroundings and this town. I had to wait for the best opportunity to quickly find this one. Luckily there weren't as many muggles about today. Thanks for placing a cache at this interesting spot.

Have had several attempts at this one over a period of time, gave up, then saw that the cache had been replaced.
A smiley at last!! TFTC

I'm in Euroa today as I had to drop my dog at the vet to have surgery doing a few geocaches to distract me. Thought I would have a hell of a time finding this cache but found it pretty quickly. Is not a micro. Was able to place a few small swaps. All in good order Tftc.
A lovely sunny morning- ideal caching weather. Thanks for bringing me to this historic pot
My son Aysen has a special interest in the Kelly story, so we set off for a trip around the NE visiting all the historical sites. On the way home I was looking at what was around and spotted here. How did I miss this! Once at GZ it was a quick find and some photos. Brilliant. A FP from me.
Found with Bogonghazy. A few quick finds on our way home from Mansfield. Thanks for placing the geocache
I’m having this week off as others at work had the Easter break off so it was my turn and another trip up North to Mildura was planned.
I left Melbourne nice and early on Friday to get a few caches in on the way up to Culgoa.
My main aim of the weekend at Mildura was to finish the Turtle series and to start the Paddle Steamer series so all good on those 2.
So after a great 3 days it was time to head back South to my next destination which was Boort as I had seen it on the map and had never been there.
I was not taking the most direct route as I wanted to drive through some old towns that are now only dots on the map and I want to take the back roads as well.
After a nice night in Boort and boy did it rain heavily overnight and I was quiet happy that I was in cabin for this stay.
I left nice early in the morning to keep tracking South.
I have finally reached Euroa which is my destination for the night but before checking in I might as well find a few caches before hand.
A great mural on the wall and a sneaky hide.
I have read a lot about Ned Kelly and I had forgotten about his adventures in Euroa.
Thanks Bingley3683 TFTC.
