Learn about the 2023 Metro Parks GeoTrail, meet new cachers, trade trackables and have a snack!
Join us for the Kick-off to the 2023 Metro Parks GeoTrail! Meet us at Blendon Woods Metro Park on Sunday April 30th 2023 @ 3PM. This event is a great way to meet fellow cachers, swap stories, share adventures and more. We will be at the picnic shelter close to the Natural Play Area. You can check in any time between 3:00 and 5:00.
For the 2023 Metro Parks GeoTrail, the first 100 teams to find any 15 GeoTrail caches are eligible to receive a special edition Metro Parks Geocoin. If you find all 20 GeoTrail caches, you can solve the puzzle and unlock the coordinates for the Bonus Cache.
• Go to metroparks.net to find complete instructions and print the GeoTrail page and search for the Columbus Metro Parks caches at geocaching.com
• Go to the coordinates using your GPS unit and search for a camouflaged, plastic container, a micro or other tricky container.
• Sign the log, trade trinkets, and read the information under the lid. Add the code for the relevant park.
• Return to geocaching.com to log your find(s) and post comments or photographs. We read the comments and enjoy seeing your photos!
• Once you find 15 caches and have logged them with geocaching.com, complete the online form to claim your coin!

Please post a “Will Attend” if you plan to join us.
Veteran cachers will be available to assist those new to geocaching. They will help explain how it works and help you find a cache at the event.
The GeoTrail is designed for all ages and abilities. We hope to see you there!
