COVID-19 Alert
The GRCA continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation in Ontario. The health, safety and well-being of our staff, volunteers and the community remain our highest priority. Please visit our COVID-19 Update page where you will find the most up-to-date information on impacts to GRCA programs and services.
Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, and then share your experiences online. More information can be found on the Geocaching website.
What is in a cache?
Physical caches include a logbook, note for the cache finder, pencil and family-friendly trade items (small objects left in the caches for geocachers to trade with one another - such as toys and key chains). These items are placed in airtight, weather-resistant containers. Another type of cache is an earth cache, which highlights an area's unique natural features.
Where can I play?
Geocaching is allowed at select Grand River Parks. For your safety, and for the health of our properties, please seek permission from the park superintendent and fill in the permission form before hiding a cache. Download our geocaching permission form (200 KB PDF). It includes our geocaching policy, a list of parks where you can play and contact information.
