Where is /var/lib/docker on Mac/OS X

Question

I´m looking for the folder /var/lib/docker on my Mac after installing docker for Mac.

With docker info I get

    Containers: 5
     ...
    Server Version: 1.12.0-rc4
    Storage Driver: aufs
     Root Dir: /var/lib/docker/aufs
     Backing Filesystem: extfs
     Dirs: 339
     Dirperm1 Supported: true
    ...
    Name: moby
    ID: LUOU:5UHI:JFNI:OQFT:BLKR:YJIC:HHE5:W4LP:YHVP:TT3V:4CB2:6TUS
    Docker Root Dir: /var/lib/docker
    Debug Mode (client): false
    ....

But I don´t have a directory /var/lib/docker on my host.

I have checked /Users/myuser/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/ but couldn´t find anything there. Any idea where it is located?

This path comes from Docker Host (not from MacOS) fefore "Docker for Mac Application" times, where where was a VirtualBox VM "default" and inside this VM mentioned path exists (for sure), now in "Docker for Mac Application" times there is a Docker.qcow2 image, which is qemu base vm. To jump inside this VM @mik-jagger way is ok (but there are few more)
