An opened geocache
Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game. You need to use GPS-enabled devices like smart phones or GPS sat navigation to find them.
We show you how to go geocaching.
Seekers use the clues on the geocache website to navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates. Then attempt to find the geocache’s container hidden at that location.
How is Geocaching played?
At its simplest level, geocaching requires you to do these 8 things:
- Register for free.
- Visit the “Hide & Seek a Cache” page on the geocache website.
- Enter your postal code and click “search.”
- Choose any geocache from the list and click on its name.
- Enter the coordinates of the geocache into your GPS Device.
- Use your GPS device to assist you in finding the hidden geocache.
- Sign the logbook and return the geocache to its original location.
- Share your geocaching stories and photos online.
What are the rules of geocaching?
- If you take something from the geocache (or “cache”), leave something of equal or greater value.
- Write about your find in the cache logbook.
