Fishing Gap was so named because old timers used to head over and down to the Cotter River to fish. Marmaduke Rothschild has a 10 metre fishing pole, but not for fishing fish. Join us if you dare to go ‘fishing’ for several geocaches on Fishing Gap Road in Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve. You’ll need to be patient as there will be long ‘fishing’ stops. We’ll go on the climb to Mt Domain for luncheon views. Around 13km and 750vm.
