Geocaching is a game where players look for hidden caches. A cache is typically a container or box that may be made of plastic or metal. The game begins online where players can access information about caches through websites. Each cache has specific coordinates that players must enter into a GPS device in order to locate it.

Caches can be found all over the world. They can be in open areas, hills or mountains, parks, or even in urban settings such as towns and cities.

To begin playing the game, you would go online to a website like www.opencaching.de. Here, you can find a list of caches. After selecting a cache, you would examine the GPS coordinates and prepare for your search.

Seekers use a GPS device or an electronic/digital compass to guide them to the cache.

You can hire a GPS device from various places including sporting shops, tourist offices, or holiday parks.

Once you have found the cache, you should take out the logbook and sign it with your name and date. Additionally, you should swap items in the cache, close it properly, and return it back to its original location.
