Geocache Description:


A (hopefully) fun game for children of all ages

Commissioner Gordon has been kidnapped. You must take on the role of Batman and face his most feared adversaries to assure the Commissioner's safe return.

The cartridge you need can be downloaded by clicking here

Please be sure you have the most recent cartridge before you start - the most recent update was 4 May 2023

This one cartridge will lead you on a little adventure during which you can find eight geocaches in about an hour or so, all of which are only a step or two from the well-marked paths…

A few tips before we start

This is the first of a series of eight Wherigo caches; none of which are at the given co-ordinates. To find the cache you don’t go to that location. Instead you play a simple little game

Be sure you have the most recent cartridge. PLEASE don’t download the cartridge and then not play it for ages. It is rather frustrating to read logs telling of issues that were fixed months ago

I don’t want to sound rude, but I’ve watched people playing Wherigo in the past… READ WHAT THE SCREEN SAYS before pressing the “next” button like a thing possessed or you will struggle.

You’ve got a little walk to the start location, but from there the caches are as close as I could get them. The terrain is mostly on decent wide paths, but one stretch is on a narrower path which can be muddy in places. PLEASE be aware that you should stick to the well-marked paths. There is no need to trample through the woods.

Before you start be sure the GPS is switched on in the software you are using for the Wherigo. Just because it is switched on in your GPS unit or on your phone doesn't always mean it is switched on in the software

Hope you enjoy it....
