This year was exceptional for unique geocaches worldwide, and we’ve compiled a list of the top 10 to share. From a clever disguise in Switzerland and a colorful gadget cache in Texas to a not-so-little library in Canada and a sneaky lock near an iconic Spanish landmark, the variety is sure to excite.
To create this list, we evaluated the most-liked geocaches on our blog, Facebook, and YouTube. Each week, we spotlight diverse geocaches from around the globe. Now, we want to hear your favorites!
Lake Brombach’s shore in Germany is a perfect location for classic beach activities like building sandcastles, stacking stone towers, and drawing smiley faces in the sand. And, of course, it’s also a great spot for geocaching.
Hidden not far from the sand beaches is a geocache masterpiece just waiting for the next geocacher to find.
Some geocaches transport you somewhere new, not just geographically, but into a story shaped by the people who care for a place. Kijkhut ‘It Gemaaltsje’: Van wol naar weidevogels (GCBAHBK) is one of those hides. Blending creativity, community spirit, and nature, this birdwatching hut transforms an old pumping station into a peaceful haven for birdwatchers and geocachers alike.
Geocaching has a way of revealing the magical hidden layers of familiar places. Each step feels like the world is offering up a new secret. Often, geocachers report their discoveries of beautiful views or historic landmarks they didn’t know existed.
One such geocache, Echoes Beyond the Gate (GCAWZTF), is cleverly hidden in a unique feature of the West Virginia Botanic Garden, a peaceful sanctuary for wildlife and vibrant blooming flower species.
As our quarter-century anniversary draws to a close, we’re feeling a bit nostalgic. This week, we’d like to share a geocache that pays tribute to something even older than geocaching: the classic children’s movie, Toy Story, released almost exactly 30 years ago, on 19 November 1995. But this isn’t just any old tribute; this cache is a playful spin on one of the film’s iconic scenes. Cache owner, wiwok’s, creativity will grab your attention, and clever design will pull you in before revealing the hidden logbook.
