Newcastle Tour Wherigo Cache

This cache has been archived.

Big Matt and Shell: Hate to see it go but this one isn't coming back in it's current form. Any move would be a "new" location so it may come back in a new GC code.

Geocache Description:

Note the cache is not at the listed co-ordinates! This cache requires a GPS, Pocket PC, iPhone or similar device capable of handling Wherigo cartridges.

This was tested with the emulator, an iPhone and an Oregon 300 GPS, without issue. If by chance you have any issues please ensure you leave a note on your log.



This Wherigo cache is our second Wherigo. It is a simple tour around the Newcastle city suburbs.

We recommend that you don't try and attempt this one at night

You can download the Wherigo cartridge here..

Your Mission:Take a tour around some of the scenic locations Newcastle has to offer and answer a few questions about each location as you go.


We hope you enjoy the tour around our city as much as we did as we made the cache.

Enjoy!

It is appreciated that before you log your find that you have uploaded the .gws file and successfully unlocked the cartridge online at www.wherigo.com.

Note: There are a number of external aps available now for different phones to be able to complete Wherigo now so don't despair that you don't have an Oregon or similar GPS that was built to run Wherigo. We used PiGo on the iPhone to test the cache and it worked well. If you use a different app let me know and I'll list it here.
