This is a lovely area and absolutely the place for an Earthcache. Lots and lots of people here which I found quite distracting. Hard to find what needs to be found as there was a bus load of people in front of it. Anyway, got there in the end. Answers sent. Thanks!

Found with Gazania Rigens, as per her log. She has sent our answers.Indeed there're no longer twelve, though of course if you count more stacks as you travel further down the road, I'm pretty sure the rally rises beyond that figure, just not right here! Very Happy

Visited together with Zouave, but we're on holiday and quite behind with our logging. We'll do the homework when we're back in Scotland and log our find then.

Oh wow! Vielen Dank!

Horn, gehschei and Pablo had a lovely bus roadtrip today and learned a lot about the geology of the 12 or not so 12 Apostles. Thanks for hiding this Earth Cache!

The Twelve Apostles are a highlight along the Great Ocean Road. TFTC and the opportunity to learn something new about this wonder of nature!
 
23-Oct-24
The view is beautiful, but there are a lot of tourists on the road
 
20-Oct-24
On our trip along great ocean road we had to stop here offcourse. Although this place is most famous (and most touristic) we liked the other viewpoint along the great ocean road more than this one. Still, its an great view
 
10-Oct-24
Spectacular. We enjoyed the stay. It was a wonderful landscape here. I have sent requested answers to the owner. Photo is attached. I leave a FP.
 
08-Oct-24
A famous sight, and with a good reason! At the end of day two, we arrived at the twelve apostles and there were a lot of people, but the sunset created a simply stunning view that made us forget all those other people and we could simply enjoy the nature.
 
07-Oct-24
Wow, so much has changed since I was last here - last century We braved the wind and drizzle and the masses of people (only a small amount compared to the warmer months tho). The view is amazing! Thanks for the education and the views!!
 
02-Oct-24
Thank you for a great place and cache.
 
02-Oct-24
What a stunning place to visit. Not at all surprised to hear its the 3rd most visited attraction in Australia!! We were lucky to have an amazing day and really enjoyed this spot - it did get very busy although Im sure this is nothing like the height of summer!! Thanks for placing a cache at such an amazing location!

Murkel and me made a nice walk around and enjoyed the view. Unfortunately the weather was cold and windy today.Thanks for showing us this place

London Bridge is the place not far from here. Wind rain and waves erode the 12 Apostles. New islands are formed. They erode at a rate of 2 cm per year
 
10-Sep-24
A windy and overcast day out here, as I imagine many of them are! Yet the colours of the rocks, sea and cliff faces were just enhanced in the softness of the light. We spotted a fair few birds, including one dead little penguin sadly. Enjoyed our time here and nice to add a cache to the list. Tftc

It had been sixteen years since our last trip down Great Ocean Road. While staying in Warrnambool with iluvtrekking, we decided on a day trip to check out the new viewing deck recently opened. We did the necessary observations for the EC and answers on behalf of both teams have been forwarded. Thanks juc_cacher

Thanks, juc cacher, wWe love a good Earthcache, they take you to some stunning locations. This is one of many we visited with richlink during a recent trip to SA. Our answers have been submitted.

Road trip to the 12 Apostles following a pit stop at Apollo Bay.Along with the spectacular coastline and someone recognising the Sunderland football (soccer) badge on my jacket being able to log a cache here was the highlight.Answers sent to CO, I hope they are OK.Thanks and greetings from Leeds, England

Bisoutje and I are on a roadtrip with a campervan between Cairns and Adelaide and have now touched ground at the Great Ocean Road. We had a great day on the road, enjoying ocean views around almost every corner. Whenever the ocean wasn't visible we turned our eyes upward to spot koalas which was spotted on our way to the lighthouse. We spent a significant amount of time here at the 12 apostels, lord arch and the London Bridge. Beautiful landscapes that deserve long hikes. We would have loved to be here before sunrise to see the penguins march to the see. Who knows in the future we maybe will. Today we learnt a lot about the geological processes behind all these magnificent views.Answers are sent to the CO.TFTC!

NLBokkie en ik gaan voor 4 weken op vakantie naar Australi. We gaan de eerste week naar Tasmanie en vervolgens trekken we 3 weken rond op het "vaste land". Onderweg ontmoet ik mijn nichtje nog die ik al 50 jaar niet heb gezien. Kortom een vakantie vol met belevenissen......Ons cachedoel is verschillende landen aandoen. Dus heen en terug vliegen we op andere steden, heen via Hong Kong en terug via Dubai.Ook willen we graag een FTF scoren in Australi. Dat lukt ons op Tasmanie?? Dan de webcamcaches in Adelaide en de oude caches tussen Adelaide en Sydney. We eindigen dan op de Mega in Canberra. Een vol en leuk programma!Helaas moeten we na 2 weken onze reis afsluiten met een vroege terugvlucht naar Nederland. Mijn moeder overlijdt plotseling en gaan we terug. We kunnen terugkijken naar 2 mooie weken in Australi!NLBokkie and I are going on holiday to Australia for 4 weeks. We will go to Tasmania for the first week and then travel around on the "mainland" for 3 weeks. Along the way I'll meet my niece, I haven't seen her for 50 years. It will be a holiday full of experiences......Our cache goal is to visit different countries. So we fly back to Dubai and forth via HongKong.We would like to score an FTF in Australia. We do that in Tasmania?? Then the webcam caches in Adelaide and the old caches between Adelaide and Sydney. Then we end up at the Mega in Canberra. A full program which a lot of fun!Unfortunately, after 2 weeks we have to end our trip with an earlier return flight to the Netherlands. My mother passed away and we have to go back. We can look back at 2 beautiful weeks in Australia!

#19745 - 1:44:00 PM; Day twelve (just a coincidence!) of a road trip with the geohoney, taking the long way inland to Adelaide from the National Capital and back again via the coast. After spending the night in Port Campbell, we backtracked to the Bay of Islands to start our earthcache led mission along the Great Ocean Road today. Last stop on the earthcache tour, but not least. Another enjoyable wander, just a pity the new platform is still to open. The other five apostles might be back in place before then! The required information was also collected and answers sent off to the CO who gave a quick OK. TFTC juc_cacher Smile

An iconic spot in Australia, 4th time here for me and its forever changing, I dont remember it being this busy. courtneyrose_ and I headed away to Victoria for a 5 day trip for me to partake in the Ballarat Marathon. Along the way we made our way to the great ocean road to explore the area, after both of us had not been there for many years. We then headed to Ballarat for 2 nights before heading to Halls Gap for a scenic experience for the night before making our way back to home to Adelaide.Thanks for the cache.

During our two-month trip through New Zealand and Australia, today we travel from Apollo Bay to Port Fairy. There is a lot to see along the way, including the twelve apostles. Of course we will look for the answers to the questions for this earth cache and we also took a nice photo.**juc_cacher**, thanks for the cache.

We are currently on a eight week holiday which is mostly spent in New Zealand and Australia. However, the first three days were spent in Singapore as a nice break from an otherwise long flight. We had about three weeks in New Zealand which went by too quickly. The remaining five weeks are spent in Australia. Today we drive from Apollo Bay to Port Fairy. Not a long drive so we take the Great Ocean Road and have lots of stops because there is so much to see. Naturally we had a stop here and walked the pathways and visited the platforms. Lovely and interesting view. The answers have been mailed by janvandevis. Thank you very much for this earthcache at this special spot.
 
08-Apr-24
Stopped a few times here over the years and it has become more commercialised every time we stop.Still an impressive sight though. Surprised they don't charge you to go and look.Thanks for a simple earthcache. We usually avoid these but this one looked very doable for us.

On a day trip from Melbourne CBD on a bus with 20 overseas tourists and a drag Queen bus driver we arrived at our main destination the 12 Apostles. We only had 30 mins here so it was a quick snap of the sign and quick snaps of the Apostles. It would have been great to have longer here but it was what it was. Answers sent to CO. A beautiful part of Victoria indeed. TFTC. The Chikins from Brisbane

Day 11 of our roadtrip in Australia. After a good night's sleep in Warnambool we'll drive the Great Ocean Road today. So it's mostly Earthcaches today. The weather is cloudy and windy, but it's dry, so perfect for us. Visited this place as the last and happy to do so, as we have already seen so many great formations further west and with a lot less tourists. Answers sent. Thanks and kind regards from Switzerland, Hinni&Simo

On secondment to Melbourne, Australia, combined with short holidays here and there. Smile From day 49/74, I was accompanied by my dear son, geocacher Ruupertti, who travelled from Finland to visit me in Australia and to spend a holiday with me in New Zealand at the end of my secondment. Day 55/74, Saturday. This was our Great Ocean Road day. Unfortunately, we both got the flu and did not feel too well, but we decided to go anyway, because this was our only opportunity. We really enjoyed the road with the beautiful views. My favorite spot was the 12 apostles. Smile I loved this cache! I sent our answers to the CO, I attach my photo and I also leave a favorite point. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Vaasa, Finland! SmileLogged with [GCDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid).

As a once in a lifetime holiday, this year we are traveling for 7 weeks to Vietnam, Bali, Australia and New Zealand. In Australia we meet Ellen Sch and MrVon sr and Ingsve to visit these last two countries, so here we cache together. We signed the log with N4. Now we have solved many caches so we have a large number of solved coordinates. But we are interested in all types of caches, so if you receive a log, it means that we have visited your cache. We haven't quite decided where we're going, but we'll probably let the weather decide for us. We want warmth because in Norway it is now freezing. We will stay for about 2 weeks in Australia and 2 weeks in New Zealand and we will end the trip with the Mega event in Adeleide on 29 February. So thank you very much to all of you who make it possible for us to travel around finding caches. On March 6, we set course for Norway again. There are extremely nice people everywhere and we are welcomed, we thank you very much. Thanks to our cache friends for good company on the trip. Now has Ellen Sch, MrVon sr and Insve started on their jurney home to Norway so we now sign logs with our nick.Som en gang i livets ferie reiser vi i r 7 uker til Vietnam, Bali, Australia og New Zealand. I australia mter vi Ellen Sch og MrVon sr og Ingsve for beske disse to siste landene, s her cacher vi sammen. N har vi lst mange cacher s vi har et stort antall med lste koordinater. Men vi er jo inntressert i alle typer cacher s hvis du mottar en logg s betyr det at vi har beskt cachen din. Vi har ikke bestemt oss helt hvor vi reiser men vi lar nok vret bestemme for oss. Vi nsker oss varme for i Norge er det n kuldegrader. Vi blir ca 2 uker i Australia og 2 uker p New Zealand og vi avslutter turen med Megaeventet i Adeleide den 29 februar. S tusen takk til alle dere som gjr det mulig for oss reise rundt finne cacher. 6 mars setter vi kursen mot Norge igjen. Det er srdeles hyggelige mennesker overalt og vi nskes velkommen, vi takker s mye. Takk til vre cachevenner for godt selskap p turen

Endelig har jeg og MrVon sr kommet oss ned til Australia og New Zealand, -en gammel drm er gtt i oppfyllelse. Team Eika og Ingsve har ogs reist i flge med oss p denne turen. Vi har reist p kryss og tvers i en mned, og mlet er ende opp i Adeleide og megaevent p skuddrsdagen. Vi har spesielt sett etter gamle cacher, for fylle jasmern, for et par stykker, og for oss to andre som har begynt tenke p gjennomgang to.De aller fleste dukket greit frem p plassene sine,noen ganger mtte vi lete litt, men var som regel heldige tilslutt. Noen DNFer ogs ble det ogs.????Vi har for det meste logget med fellesnicket N4(ingsve,MrVon sr. Team Eika og Ellen Sch) men ogs egne nicknavn er brukt.En stor takk til alle dere COer for utlegg og vedlikehold av cachene deres. Uten deres arbeid, hadde vi aldri kunnet kost oss med denne hobbyen.Alltid hyggelig med et nytt smilefjes p kartet.????Cachehilsen fra Ellen Sch, Norge????????????Me and MrVon sr have come down to Australia and New Zealand, -an old dream has finally come to an end. Team Eika and Ingsve have also traveled with us on this trip.We have been traveling cross-country for a month, and the goal is to end up in Adeleide and mega-event on the leap year. We have especially looked for old caches, to fill jasmer'n, for a couple of pieces, and for the other two of us who have started to think about reviewing more.The vast majority of them showed up at their places, sometimes we had to search a bit, but we were usually lucky in the end. There were also some DNFs.????We have mostly logged in with the common nickname N4(ingsve, MrVon sr. Team Eika and Ellen Sch), but our own nicknames are also used.A big thank you to all you CO's for laying out and maintaining your caches. Without their work, we would never have been able to make a living with this hobby.Always nice to have a new smiley face on the map.????Cache greetings from Ellen Sch, Norway????????????

6 months ago, during a frenzy, we said to ourselves "why not going to the mega in Adelaide for the leapday". From scratch we moved on to preparing an 18-day project in Australia.Our objectives are simple, visit a small part of this immense continent while validating a few caches. There are so many caches (impossible to do everything) that we will select. Our plan will allow us to visit Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Mount Gambier and finish in Adelaide for the famous Mega.During our stay we will log PestiHoot for Pestinette and Blackhoot. Today, we take the great road sea to go to Mount Gambier. A lot of steps, long walk in the sand, but we did it. WE are lucky, water isnot hight There was funny, when a wave touch us.Thanks for the virtual cacheThanks for the cache and the discovery of beautiful or original spots

Greetings from Seattle! I'm down under for the first time with jtcoffee to attend the Great Leap Forward in Adelaide. While here, we're naturally trying to pack in as many "bonus" activities as possible, including (but not limited to) the following: ??? Log our find finds in the southern hemisphere ????? Find Lane Cove, Australia's Oldest ??? Experience Taylor Swift's Eras Tour in Sydney ??? Drive the Great Ocean Road ???? Visit the Lord of the Rings filming locations in New Zealand ????Tackle a challenge cache requiring 31 Earthcaches, and 31 Virtuals in 31 days (GC32TBZ and GC32TC2) ?? ??Today is Great Ocean Road Day and this was our fourth (or fifth?) Earthcache of the day, and for those keeping score - our 17th of the trip. There were so many other tourists around that I found this to be a somewhat stressful stop despite the breathtaking views. Answers will be sent in (or already have been) by my own personal roadside naturalist, Jessie. Thanks for keeping this one in play and thus contributing to our amazing adventure in Oz! ??

Greetings from Seattle! ??I am lucky enough to attend the Great Leap Forward Mega-Event in Adelaide with my fellow Lackey and best geo-buddy giacaches, and we hit the road to take the scenic route to get there. ?? We're heading from Melbourne to Warrnambool today via the Great Ocean Road and I've been so excited to see this place since so many people have recommended it! It was great to see this iconic road with all of the great wildlife and scenery. This was a must-see location and I am so glad we stopped! It was very popular with other tourists as well, but we were able to get in and see the sea stacks and enjoy the long view from here. Answers have been sent in for both of us. ?? Thanks for adding to a beautiful day and amazing trip!

**Today:**Found with DSDToday we decided to both visit the Great Ocean Road for the first time! Big Grin This wasn't originally on the plan for this trip, but our route changed slightly due to fires and we were too close to the coast here to miss it! We started caching in Port Campbell and ended our day in Mount Gambier, where I also crossed the SA border for the first time as well! A hugely productive and incredible day of amazing sights and plenty of new places visited. ---**This Cache:**Wow! Surreal to be visiting the Twelve Apostles today, something I have always wanted to do, but didn't expect to be doing today! Enjoyed the walk around, however the AL was quite frustrating, so this Earthcache was a nice substitute as it all went well.Thanks for bringing us hereSent answers to the CO and a pic attached to this logTFTC

Together with 36 other geocachers, the KiSt team undertook a very long trip to Australia ???? and New Zealand ???? for three weeks. On both the outward and return journeys, there was a stopover in Doha, the capital of Qatar ????.We experienced a great deal on this trip and gained many very different impressions of the two countries, their nature and their culture. Of course, the main focus was on visiting as many caches of as many different types as possible and also all accessible old cans. However, we also made sure to visit many special places of interest and to gain as comprehensive an impression as possible of nature and its flora and fauna.To save the logbooks, we usually signed in with our team name **Downunder24**. For "special" cans, however, we have not missed the opportunity to leave our nickname as well.This beautiful cache is now also one of our finds.Due to the large number of caches visited, it is unfortunately not possible for us to write an individual log for each can, which is why we would like to apologize to the owners for this collective log.We also met other cachers at some of the events and were able to share our experiences. Many thanks to the event owners!Of course we would like to thank all the owners for showing us the great locations, the sometimes tricky puzzles, exciting multis and wherigos, as well as the interesting virtuals and earth caches - TFTC!!!---In der Besetzung KiSt unternahmen wir zusammen mit 36 weiteren Geocachern fr drei Wochen eine sehr weite Reise nach Australien ???? und Neuseeland ????. Auf der An- und Abreise stand dabei jeweils ein Zwischenstopp in Doha an, der Hauptstadt von Qatar ????.Wir haben auf dieser Reise sehr viel erlebt und viele sehr unterschiedliche Eindrcke von den beiden Lndern, deren Natur und deren Kultur mitgenommen. Natrlich lag ein Hauptaugenmerk darauf, mglichst viele Caches mglichst vieler unterschiedlicher Typen und auch alle erreichbaren alten Dosen zu besuchen. Darber haben wir es aber nicht versumt, vielen besonderen Sehenswrdigkeiten einen Besuch abzustatten und uns von der Natur und deren Flora und Fauna einen mglichst umfassenden Eindruck zu verschaffen.Um die Logbcher zu schonen, haben wir uns dort meist mit unserem Teamnamen **Downunder24** eingetragen. Bei "besonderen" Dosen haben wir es uns aber auch nicht nehmen lassen, zustzlich unseren Nicknamen zu hinterlassen.Auch dieser schne Cache zhlt jetzt zu unseren Funden.Aufgrund der groen Anzahl der besuchten Caches ist es uns leider nicht mglich, zu jeder Dose einen individuellen Log zu verfassen, weshalb wir uns bei den Ownern fr diesen Sammellog entschuldigen wollen.Auf einigen Events haben wir auch andere Cacher kennengelernt und konnten unsere Erfahrungen austauschen. Vielen Dank an die Event-Owner!Natrlich wollen wir uns bei allen Ownern fr das Zeigen der tollen Orte, die teils kniffligen Rtsel, spannenden Multis und Wherigos, sowie die interessanten Virtuals und Earthcaches bedanken - TFTC!!

Mit 37 Geocachern, aus Deutschland, Dnemark, Luxemburg und der Schweiz, ging es auf groe Reise. Drei Wochen nach Australien und Neuseeland, beginnend mit einem Zwischenstopp in Doha in Katar. So lange und so weit weg von zu Hause war ich noch nie. Eine aufregende Zeit.Beim Geocaching lag der Focus auf viele unterschiedliche Cachetypen, aber auch besondere Wertungen, Challenges und besonders ein paar sehr alte Caches aus den Jahren 2000 und 2001. Aber auch natrlich ganz besonders die Geocaches, die zu Fu vom Hotel aus gut erreichbar waren.Natrlich wurde stand aber nicht nur das Geocaching im Mittelpunkt, sondern auch die Sehenswrdigkeiten der einzelnen Stationen, die wir besuchten, verdienten ihre Aufmerksamkeit.In die Logbcher trugen wir uns mit unserem Teamnamen "Downunder 2024" ein, Logbuchplatz sparend und effizient.Es war eine ganz besondere Reise im groen Team, das auch sehr viel Spa gemacht hat.Heute ging es rund um die Gegend von Melbourne mit schnen Ausflgen.Aufgrund der Vielzahl der Caches reicht es berwiegend nur zu einem Einheitslog, fr den ich mich bei den unterschiedlichen Ownern hiermit schon mal entschuldigen mchte.Danke fr diesen Geocache. Danke fr die Ausarbeitung. Danke frs Zeigen.Lieber Gru aus Duisburg / DeutschlandAndyDieser Logeintrag wird mit Hilfe von Google bersetzt.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________We set off on a long journey with 37 geocachers from Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg and Switzerland. Three weeks to Australia and New Zealand, starting with a stopover in Doha, Qatar. I have never been so long and so far away from home. An exciting time.When geocaching, the focus was on many different cache types, but also special ratings, challenges and especially a few very old caches from the years 2000 and 2001. But also, of course, especially the geocaches that were easily accessible on foot from the hotel.Of course, the focus wasn't just on geocaching; the sights of the individual stations we visited also deserved attention.We entered our team name Downunder 2024 in the logbooks, saving logbook space and efficiently.It was a very special trip in a large team, which was also a lot of fun.Today we went on nice excursions around the Melbourne area.Due to the large number of caches, there is usually only one standard log, for which I would like to apologize to the different owners.Thanks for this geocache. Thanks for the elaboration. Thank you for showing me.Kind regards from Duisburg / GermanyAndy

I've visited the 12 Apostles many times, and it's fascinating to see how it's evolved as a tourist destination. Thanks for adding this Earthcache.

Finalmente con Eletab sono arrivate le nostre vacanze in Australia e New Zealand.1 e 2 GiornoViaggio davvero lungo, pi di 18000 km da casa in linea d'aria !!!Appena arrivati affrontiamo una Traditional per ottenere il badge ma poi alziamo subito la posta con una multi ma la stanchezza prende il sopravvento e abbandoniamo velocemente per uscire a cena.La vera caccia inizia solo domani..3 GiornoCi svegliamo presto e abbiamo 2 ore e mezzo prima di colazione per cui i primi 10000 passi volano cos. A fine giornata arriviamo a farne le quattro volte di piu' (39.000). Abbiamo visitato un mercato di prodotti alimentari locali e esplorati 3 bellissimi parchi. 4 GiornoOggi abbiamo deciso di provare a usare i monopattini. Io non posso reggere un numero tale di passi per due settimane.... Una figata, io sono abituato ma Elio si comporta divinamente e per me se lo comprer hihihi. Nonostante questo arriviamo a oltre 20000....5 Giornomattina presto ci facciamo 2 ore e mezza di monopattino in giro per Lab poi partiamo per Dunedin per cercare le cache storiche che ci interessano. Qualche sosta obbligatoria a cache di elevato valore statistico allietano il viaggio !!! 6 GiornoTorniamo a Christchurch ma prima un'altra Novembre 2000 a Dunedin. Nel tragitto facciamo un po' di belle soste all'HQ di Steampunk e Moeraki.Domani all'alba partiamo per l'Australia... Iniziamo una nuova avventura!!!7 GiornoAereo OK Auto OK SIM Australia semi OK. Partiamo carichi come molle ma ben presto ci rendiamo conto che il traffico dati difficilissimo. Zone scoperte?!? Boh. Adesso in paese vicino ai Twelve Apostles tutto funziona bene.8 GiornoPartiamo con calma e dopo una buona colazione ci dirigiamo piano piano verso Melbourne percorrendo una buona parte della Ocean Road !! Ci fermiamo per alcune tappe programmate ma anche a sentimento.... Ricordiamoci che siamo in vacanza !!!!About this cache:le Earthcache non mi sono mai piaciute ma oggi vedr cose che voi umani..... A fine giornata spero di essere diventato un professionista di geologia legata a queste magnifiche scogliere.Punto Favorito d'obbligo !!!Thanks Owner
