Eurocaching

[+ASchear]

Hey guys,

 

I'm planning to take a trip to Europe this summer to go backpacking and study at university. I'm kind of sure that I have to buy a new GPS for this (which I don't mind) because mine is labeled the Magellan Triton 300 North American. If I can just download new basemaps, that would be sweet - more info on that is appreciated.

 

Anyway, I am pretty open on where I can go in Europe, my only requirement being that I need to end up in Prague for University after 10-14 days of travel. I'm looking to make these 10-14 days awesome by traveling around to some amazing places. And thus, I am looking for recommendations - on awesome caches, on awesome cities, etc. I think this is the best place to ask, because geocachers really do know the best spots when it comes to travelling.

 

Thanks in advance

No need to buy a new GPS. I'm sure, we'll get you a new basemap. Just PM me.

I'm not sure if the Triton 300 has that capability, but it's something I'm going to look into in the near future.

We did some geocaching in Prague just a few months ago! Be warned they are mostly micros, even the puzzles. You have to travel quite a distance outside the city before you get to small -regular size caches, however there are some small ones in the city most memorable were these ones (in no particular order):

 

Tancici Dum / Dancing House

RIVERSIDE

Prague Tribute

Terezka

Jindrich a Maria - this one took a while and the english hint was garbled.

Vaclavak / Wenceslas square

 

Mainly it was their inventiveness, or the fact there was room for small bugs and coins.
