A new kind of recreational activity is increasing in popularity and it’s no wonder why: it’s a modern day treasure hunt.

Geocaching is a free outdoor recreational activity in which players use a GPS, smartphone and other navigational techniques to hide and seek hidden containers, called geocaches.

Players navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache hidden in that area.
