Geocache Description:


Londonderry Park is a sports and leisure facility, on the Portaferry Road, managed by Ards & North Down Council.  There you can play football, crickey, bowls, basketball, etc. We have used the indoor facilities for a few Events, including GIFF 2018. Lets add Geocaching to the list of outdoor activities!  

This cache will take you on a pleasant stroll around the park and, as well as watching folk enjoying themselves, you will get yet another view of Scrabo.  There is ample free parking at the given waypoint.

To start this adventure, first you will need to download the Reverse Wherigo Cartridge on to your smartphone or GPS, if compatible. An app will be required to find this cache. We use Wherigo for iPhone. Other apps are available for android phones, eg WhereYouGo.

This type of Wherigo allows you to search for the cache using only distance clues (no directions). The first Reverse Wherigo GC357G1 was created by Waldmeister. The basic idea is to find the final cache while being given only your distance to it. To get the current distance, you can ask the Reverse Wherigo Box in your inventory, but it won't tell you the direction - that's for you to figure out! There's no limit to how many times you can ask, but try to keep your number of guesses as low as possible. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge are provided in the cartridge itself, which is multilingual.

When prompted you will have to type an initiation code into your player. This consists of three six-digit numbers that you have to find from the information below.

At the posted coordinates you will find an information board on which there is a telephone number at the bottom left hand corner.

Tel: 028  A B C D  E F G H    Change the letters to numbers to obtain three six-digit numbers.

If you are having difficulty with the Wherigo App you may send your three six-digit numbers to the COs via the message the owner link above.

 

Gook luck!
