Location:
Springwood is situated in the Yugarabul traditional Aboriginal country of Brisbane and surrounding regions. Indigenous Australian people from the Yugambeh and Jaggera language groups inhabited the local area. The area was scrub, with wild brumbies and plenty of wildlife. It had a spring in the middle, hence the name Springwood. Springwood was laid out as a development when the South East Freeway was being conceived. It has 17 parks covering nearly 9% of the total area.
Springwood is a significant activity centre in the region, with a major bus station, two hotels, a 24-hour McDonald's, two state primary schools, a state high school, a campus of Calvary Christian College, a public library, three shopping malls, ambulance, fire and police stations and many places of worship.
Technical details:
This Kaffee Kache is an interactive mystery geocache. It requires a smartphone. It is a unique way of stringing together virtual and physical waypoints. Thus, it is part virtual cache, part multicache, part puzzle cache, and part adventure lab. What more could one want?
A Kaffee Kache does not require any specific hardware or software - just internet access and a browser. There is no need to download any Cartridge or App.
A Kaffee Kache also has a Teamwork attribute. Because an Intercache works live across web-based activities, having a friend or two could save you the intricacies of internet drop-out should such happen in low-signal areas.
This Kaffe Kache also has another web-based component: What3Words. You can work What3Words directly from the website www.what3words.com OR....
There is also an App for both Android and iPhone. If you would like to use the What3Words App, then use THIS LINK.
