Albert - Rabbit Trap Hotel

For location, refer to second marker at http://www.a-trip.com/tracks/view/132583

Our first stop was at the Rabbit Trap Hotel in Albert.  It’s about 500 kms northwest of Sydney, and about 12 people live there.  The Rabbit Trap is famous for … you guessed it – a rabbit trap!  The strange thing is that it’s been called that for years, but until now there’s never been a rabbit trap anywhere in sight.  Somebody has built a HUGE steel rabbit trap, but hadn’t set it up yet and was in the shed out the back.  A few weeks ago Channel  7 Sunrise went up there and did an article on it.  So they got a crane and popped the trap onto the roof of the pub and when the film crew left, then took it down again.  It’s due to be installed permanently soon.  The camping is across the road from the pub so it’s just a couple of steps to some beers and a lovely dinner.
