This is a regular multi cache along a nice flat bike way in Moorooka. It is approximately 1 km from start to finish and you will have to make your way back to the beginning and your car at the end.
There are two great playgrounds along the way and some open spaces to kick a ball. Close to ground zero there is a convenience store, an Italian restaurant and an Indian restaurant if you need to stock up on supplies or require an urgent penne or butter chicken.
At the coordinates listed above you will find a sign explaining the history of the area and of Moolabin Creek. You will find these signs along the way and they provide a great insight into what was here before the houses arrived.
