Geocache Description:


North Wangaratta Sculpture Trail

The Trail Theme "Life on the Plain"

A celebration of rural life, history, wildlife, birds, flora, farming and people...

The unique, self-drive sculpture trail display was officially launched in September 2022.

A creative, self-drive Sculpture Trail project facilitated by the North Wangaratta Community Group, supported by the Rural City of Wangaratta Community Grants Scheme. Participants have displayed their fun, artistic works to locals and visitors alike in a gallery with a difference... front fences, gates and paddocks!


This geocache will bring you to two sculptures situated on opposite sides of the road to each other.

A cormorant, drying it’s wings in the sun after diving for fish. With many to be seen around the local waterways, Wangaratta is the indigenous name for the area and translates into ‘the long neck of the cormorant’. Made from corrugated iron that was rescued from the roof of the old North Wangaratta/ Bowser Hall.

. “Stockman” by Sue Enders

This is a sculpture of the stockman and his gear beside the campfire. A tribute to their contribution to this country. Primarily made from cement over wire.
