Geocache Description:

Another geocache originally placed by wackydo . . . but now greatly modified by yours truly.

Glenraphael Drive runs south off Cliff Drive, right out along Narrow Neck.

You can easily reach GZ with an ordinary 2WD vehicle. Wheelchair accessible.

Cliff Drive is a spectacular roadway that takes you right along the cliff edges between Katoomba and Leura. There are lookouts positioned all along Cliff Drive, and whether you stay in your car or get out to stand at the lookouts, you'll enjoy some great perspectives in this majestic area.

This particular cache is placed to bring you a short distance along Glenraphael Drive, a spectacular dirt road that leads to one of the hidden jewels of the Blue Mountains. It extends about 2 km, heading into the National Park, until you get to a locked gate. The next seven kilometres is for walkers and cyclists only. This is a popular mountain bike riding area. The Neck juts southwards from Katoomba for a distance of some ten kilometres and ends at Clear Hill, overlooking the very wild Wild Dog Mountains.
