Geocache Description:


Kaffee Kache - a cache to celebrate when we have shared a chat over coffee with fellow geocachers.


Preliminaries:

  • No cache is hidden at the posted coordinates, but you start NEAR there.
  • There is no need to enter any commercial premises for any part of this cache!
  • Please use the roadside footpaths where possible, and take care in crossing any roads.
  • Park responsibly!

Location:

Ashgrove's native name is 'Kallindarbin' and was originally inhabited by the indigenous 'Turrbal' or 'Duke of York clan'. The main thoroughfare, Waterworks Road, was built on a Turrbal pathway that led to Mount Coot-tha, a place of the 'Honey-Bee Dreaming' and to the Enoggera Reservoir. The first sales of freehold land commenced in 1856.

Despite being so close to the city, it has managed to remain a leafy, residential suburb. From coffee to snacks, takeaway and fine drinking, Ashgrove has a vibrant dining scene. 

Parents with young kids enjoy the more than 30 parks in Ashgrove to explore. Dorrington Park is particularly popular with children thanks to its shady Enchanted Forest playground (and a geocache - GC81N2X), half basketball court and skate park. 

Ashgrove also has a large number of walking trails and bike paths which wind through parks and playgrounds. 


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 or phone freeze 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.
