Geocaching

Geocaching is an outdoor treasure-hunting game using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers called "geocaches." Dozens of geocaches are hidden throughout Five Rivers MetroParks. To help slow the spread of COVID-19, practice social distancing while in the parks and carry hand sanitizer to use after you find your cache.
