The Georges TB Hotel Traditional Geocache

Four historic buildings in downtown Lexington comprise The Georges, a boutique inn recognized as one of the Top 15 Best City Hotels in the Continental U.S. by Travel & Leisure in 2020 & 2021.

The listed coordinates will take you to the parking area of the Lexington, Virginia Visitor Center. The cache is a wooden container located inside the building. Muggles abound at this location, although stealth is not really necessary since there is a geocaching display set up around the cache container.

Visitor Center hours are from 11am-4pm daily. Cache is only available during these hours!

The Georges is a short walk from the Visitor Center. The hotel's Washington Building, on the corner of Main and Washington Streets, was built in 1789. It is one of the oldest surviving buildings downtown. The name of the hotel gives a nod to George Washington, a benefactor and partial namesake at Washington & Lee University, and George Marshall, an alumnus of VMI. For more information about historic buildings downtown, pick up a walking tour map at the visitor center

While you're at the Visitor Center, be sure to pick up a passport for our challenge series. The Gems of Rockbridge Geocaching Trail has been developed as part of an Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) grant to enhance the gateway communities along the 469-mile Blue Ridge Parkway. The grant funds projects that promote sustainable tourism and enhance the local community while protecting the area's natural beauty and cultural heritage.

How it works: each of the ten caches along the trail contains a question that can be answered from information available near the cache location. Log all 10 caches and answer each of the 10 questions to complete the trail. The first 200 to complete the trail will receive a limited-edition commemorative coin!
