List of the world's highest geocaches. Trying to be as complete, current and accurate as possible... if you know of any that should be in the list, please send me a message through my profile! Thanks :)

Currently trying to list all caches above 5000m and to be as complete as possible above 4500m. All cache types, including Earthcaches/Virtuals. Listed by altitude, now highest first ;)

Listed elevations are either according to cache listing, or automated data obtained through the GSAK Elevation macro (data sources: geonames, Google). This may not always be correct or very precise. If you disagree with the altitude on a cache, feel free to contact me.

World's highest caches!
