Dubai Park and Grabs?

[+Team Maple Leaf]

I'm going to be traveling to Dubai in the next couple of days. I've picked what I think is a good park and grab to drop off a coin. Most of the caches that I've looked at seem to require a 4x4 or are micro-caches. I'm looking for a good Park and Grab that is big enough to drop off a travel bug (hooked into a little stuffie). Can anyone recommend such a cache that isn't too far from the Kempinski Hotel?

 

Kind regards,

Try the following. All containers are big enough for a reasonable TB, can be reached in a 2x4. All distances are “as the crow flies” from the Kempinski.

 

Camel Track by Desert Trekker (GC10ZT6) – 8.9km - you can get a 2x4 reasonably close but will need to walk across some sand tracks to it – don’t get the car stuck!

Jebel Ali Jumble by gregdubai (GCW402) – 12.4km can park a 2x4 next to the cache

Za'abeel Park by yvesetrex (GC169QA) -15.7km – inside a public park,

Hadeeq al Khor by Navigull with when (GC12N9Q) – 18.4km – inside a public park, a little distance from the car park

Gold Cache by Springstone (GC14GA1) – 25.7km - a little way out of town but you can park a 2x4 close to it

Ghantot by Kanz Dubai Team (GCVBVF) – 41.3 km just off the Abhu Dhabi highway

 

Have fun in Dubai. If you are here over the weekend check out

Thanks for the info. I've looked at some of these and deemed them too far as we hadn't planned to rent a car while we're there. I do plan to attend WWFM while I'm there though!

 

Thanks again,
