Usually when geocaching, you get to see new and interesting
places you probably would not have seen otherwise, and that is one
of the great things about this hobby. But what if you are short of
time when visiting a new town, and want to see the main tourist
attractions and do some geocaching as well?
In Stockholm the On the Tourist Trail (OTTT) –
series of caches could be the answer. These seven caches (plus one
bonus mystery) are all hidden next to main tourist attractions, all
on the Top-ten list of most visited places in town. The OTTT-caches
are all traditionals, the stashes are 0,4 l ”Lock and
Lock”-boxes with enough room for small trading items, and
they should not be too hard to find.
The caches are:
OTTT #1 – City Hall,
OTTT #2 – Changing of the Guard,
OTTT #3 – Sightseeing,
OTTT #4 – Museum of Modern Art,
OTTT #5 – Vasa,
OTTT #6 – Skansen,
OTTT #7 – Fjällgatan and the bonus
mysteryOTTT
#8 – Bulls Eye.
Sightseeing
Update September 21, 2009: Construction work going on at
the original site, meanwhile a temporary cache can be found at the
updated coordinates. Note that this one is a micro, no room for
trading items.
Happy hunting!/Trang
Stockholm is located on several islands between lake Mälaren
and the sea, and one of the best ways to enjoy the view is from a
boat. From Strömkajen several boat tours departure daily,
choose “Stockholm Sightseeing” for tours around the
town, or “Waxholmsbolaget” for trips further out in the
Stockholm archipelago.
Lots of mugglers around - be careful while logging.
