We asked you: what are your geocaching goals for 2026?
A new year is a natural moment to pause, reflect, and look ahead. In geocaching, that can mean setting a clear goal—or simply staying open to wherever the game leads next.
Some geocachers start the year with a plan, like completing a challenge, exploring new places, or focusing on a favorite cache type or difficulty. Others take a more flexible approach, fitting geocaching into everyday life and using it as a way to get outside and connect with their community.
We asked geocachers to share what they’ve set out to accomplish in 2026.

This year, over 20,000 geocachers attended Events around the world to celebrate their shared love of postcards and adventure. We looked through every Event Cache gallery and were awestruck by the creative postcards, log sheets, and group photos.
We’re still seeing attended logs and postcards arrive, but here are some standout moments so far.
