Kaniva 2 silo VK-KNV3

Posted on by

Our final silo for our trip (Monday 21st November 2022) was the Kaniva 2 silo VK-KNV3. We made quite a mistake, as we had forgotten that we had activated this silo on the 1st day of our trip. Oh well, we added some more QSOs to our tally for this silo.

Kaniva is located about 416 km north west of Melbourne.

Please see my previous post re this silo. There are some interesting videos at that post about the silo.

Kaniva is home to the sheep art trail which spans about 900 metres in length, running from from the Big Windmill connecting the Silo Art to the Wetlands and Fauna Park. The Sheep Art Trail features 46 sheep, murals and games.

Every time we travel through Kaniva, we stop at the Fauna Park and aviary at Kaniva. It was established by the Kaniva Rotary Club during the 1980s.

It was time for us to hit the road. Sadly there was no more time for any further silos. It had been a brilliant 4 weeks away.

Thankyou to everyone who called us and thanks to those who took the time to spot us on parksnpeaks.
