Geocache Trails

A new site www.geocachetrails.com aims to link together caches and multicaches that can be easily completed during the course of a morning or afternoon's circular walk. "A geocache trail is a series of geocaches, usually laid out along a circular route for walking, biking or driving. Completing a geocache trail is a great way to spend a morning, afternoon or day geocaching." There are quite a few such trails in North East Wales, one in Snowdonia, 4 near Aberystwyth and 2 near Cardiff. If you have any suggestions for more please send them to the site using this form.

Over in the USA the founders of Geocaching have linked together 3 challenging caches which sum up the history of geocaching in the States. Click here to see how this has developed. Can anyone think of three Welsh caches which would be equivalent? Please email your suggestions to enquiries@walkingnorthwales.co.uk.

Those of you Watching Wales Tonight at 6pm on ITV Wales last night may have noticed the article on geocaching, starring our very own Peter Hewlett of geocachingwales.com and Huw Price, a keen geocacher from the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. Huw and Peter showed Paul Brand of ITV Wales around a few caches in the Park and helped him create an ITV Wales cache. We'll post a link to the coordinates on geocaching.com as soon as they appear, but for now you can watch the article at http://www.itvlocal.com/wales/news/?player=WAL_News_15&void=289670 The piece on Geocaching is approximately 15 minutes and 30 seconds in.

This is our first blog on Geocaching Wales. Over the next few months we hope to be bringing you news of exciting new geocaching events in Wales, as well as a log of our experiences as we get to grips with this exciting new hobby.
Geocaching Wales was officially launched by Peter at the NEC Outdoor Show on Sunday the 16th of March. There was a lot of interest from audience members, two of whom even exchanged travel bugs with Peter. Geocaching Wales serves as a portal to welsh caches stored on Geocaching.com, and will also feature news and events specific to the region. We would be welcome for your feedback on how to improve the site which you can leave in the comments section. Monday, March 10
