Geocaching, a sport for the restless and curious, explorers and dreamers. The "treasure hunt" is real and can be practised in various municipalities of the Region of Valencia.

What is geocaching?
Geocaching is a multidisciplinary sport that consists of finding treasures with the help of a GPS device. A different form of leisure, fun and suitable for the whole family.

The popularity of this activity began in the year 2000, when David Ulmer, hid the first treasure in Portland (USA) and published the coordinates on the Internet to create a game for his friends and family. Quickly the idea spread throughout the world and today there are already more than two million caches scattered around the planet.

Geocaching is a complete sport. As it brings together various types of leisure: adventure, research, guidance, exploration, nature, teamwork and travel. The willingness to find more and more caches invites you to go and discover many places.

This practice is perfect for all ages, from the smallest to the oldest. Geocaching encourages you to spend more time with your family and share fun moments playing as explorers in the middle of nature.

It unites the contact with nature and the internet, although more and more treasures are hidden in urban areas. The game starts on a smartphone or GPS, where the coordinates of your next discovery are indicated. After following the track, you will find a box full of objects of all kinds, which you must register on the official page.

If you dare, you can also hide your own cache, although you have to understand very well the rules of the game. As they say on the official website: "When you're going to hide a geocache, think about the reason you're taking people to that place. If the only reason is geocache, then look for a better place."

Thanks to the environmental and cultural richness of the Region of Valencia, many caches have been hidden throughout the territory.
