GeoTour Details:
You have found your next adventure! Thank you for joining us for the “Visit Centre County” GeoTour as we show you some of our most favorite caching locations to include state parks, beautiful vistas, and historical points of interest! Our team of GeoTour planners have worked very hard to put together various cache types to keep the GeoTour interesting and challenging; however, no geocache should be beyond a 3/3.5 for terrain and/or difficulty! We are pleased to show you around our County and hope that you will enjoy the GeoTour and complete your passport to collect your custom GeoTour Geocoin (there is a minimum number of caches required to receive coin)!
If you will be caching with some young ‘uns, we have a Jr. Geocaching Passport available for children, 12 yrs. and under, with a special prize for their hard work too! Caches will be marked as “family-friendly” and should correlate to the Jr. Geocaching Passport.
Download your “Visit Centre County” GeoTour passport and/or your Jr. Geocaching Passport or pick-up paper copies at the following coordinates: N 40° 48.879; W 077° 51.274 (Happy Valley Adventure Bureau). You’ll return your passport to the Happy Valley Adventure Bureau when complete and collect your prize if you meet the minimum requirements!
The “Visit Centre County” GeoTour is brought to you by Centre Region Parks and Recreation, the Happy Valley Adventure Bureau, and Groundspeak, Inc. We are pleased that you’ll be joining us in Happy Valley soon! Bring on the Adventures!
Cache Info:
This easy-to-find, FAMILY-FRIENDLY cache involves a walk of about two-tenths of a mile in a beautiful park whose trails lead to distant views of Mount Nittany and the airport tower. We stocked the cache with stickers and trade items for kids. This cache has been placed with permission of the Centre Region Parks and Recreation Department—Permit Number CRPR-2020-05-03-02. The park is open from dawn to dusk so only daylight caching is permitted.
Access from the parking area will be by a paved trail and a grass way used for disc golf. Be alert for disc golf players on the grass way.
You’re looking for a plastic lock-top container about 15 feet from the grassway.
THE CODE WORD FOR THIS CACHE IS UNDER THE LID OF THE CACHE CONTAINER AND ALSO ON THE COVER OF THE CACHE LOG.
