Geocache Description:


Geocaching Adventure Lab

This is a puzzle cache, where to obtain the clues you must visit the waypoints specified in the Wellington Walkabout Adventure Lab and answer the questions. 

This adventure will take you to some notable spots around the Wellington CBD. If you don’t spend any extra time at each waypoint, you could complete this adventure in 90 minutes or so, but I recommend exploring further if you have the time.

There are five waypoints that you can visit the waypoints in any order. All waypoints except Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa are available 24/7. Note that the waypoints both on this page and in the Adventures app only take you to the location, you will need to hunt out the relevant item to find the answers.

To get started with the Adventure, you will need a smartphone and to either scan the QR code below or follow the link to set up the app and start adventuring.

All locations have mobile signal and have large geofences around them so you can answer the questions from anywhere in between if you need to find a wifi hotspot  - look out for cbdfree.


The cache is located at: S41 16.XXX E174 46.YYY, where:

XXX = Railway + Chain + Buoy + 77
YYY = Granite + Beehive - Railway - 49

The cache is a camouflaged eclipse mint tin. Extreme stealth is required.
