Today, we release a new country/regional souvenir for Honduras! If you have found a geocache in Honduras, you automatically receive the souvenir on your profile.
Honduras is home to ancient Mayan ruins, the world’s second largest coral reef, and several active volcanoes. Caches here showcase the natural beauty of this country, from the Caribbean lowlands to the expansive mountainous highlands.
