Geocaching : a real treasure hunt for morderns times!
Who has never dreamed of once again experiencing the excitement of the great treasure hunts of our childhood?
Geocaching is a great treasure hunt that takes you on an unusual exploration of the region.
The principle is simple: equipped with a GPS, a tablet or simply a mobile, you have to find boxes (known as “geocaches”) hidden outside and more specifically in remarkable and unusual places
But before you start this treasure hunt, there are a few rules to follow…
How do you become a geocacher?
- Visit the official geocaching web site, sign up and choose an alias.
- To begin your adventure, you must look for your 1st cache on the www.geocaching.com site (make sure you have a GPS) or via the free application for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone.
- Get your shoes on, don’t forget your bag and go to the GPS coordinates.
- Once there, you must find this famous box whose size may vary; some are absolutely tiny!
- Inside these boxes, you will find a logbook in which you should write your alias.
- If you find one or more “treasures”, (usually worthless trinkets), you can take this item as long as you replace it with another.
- Remember to put the cache back where you found it.
- Once your walk is over, all you have to do is log in again online to say that you have found the cache…
N.B.: geocaching should be carried out discreetly. This activity can also be practised at night, in groups, with riddles, etc.
There you have it! You’re a geocacher… Go forth and play!
