Positioned between Alberta's two major cities, Calgary and Edmonton, Olds is the perfect spot for geocachers from across the province, North America, and even from around the globe to come together.
Tucked away amidst vibrant canola and wheat fields in Mountain View County, Olds features breathtaking wide-open skies and acts as a gateway to the Alberta Foothills, vast rolling hills leading toward the majestic Canadian Rocky Mountains, offering endless opportunities to explore.
Discover a wealth of adventure and dive into the numerous geocaches that are just waiting for you!
