What is a Geocaching? Wikipedia describes Geocaching as an outdoor recreational activity, in which participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or mobile device and other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, called “geocaches” or “caches”, at specific locations marked by coordinates all over the world.

There is an official body www.geocaching.com where you can register and record your geocaching successes.
