texasexile Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 How do you find out where a cache is in France? I'm going to Paris, and have looked for "Paris" in the names of caches. But there is no way to look for caches in terms of cities or zip codes. I want to go to Ronchamp and look for caches there, any hints? Quote Link to comment
Les Gaulois (romary) Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 If you know where are the locations you are going to, you can go and have a look at the map at the following adress : http://www.brillig.com/geocaching/france.shtml. For Paris it is relatively easy. For Ronchamp you have to tell me where is it (Is it the one in the East of France?) les gaulois Quote Link to comment
+montythemule Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 I am travelling to Toulouse next month. The map page shows the caches in France and their location distribution across the country. I wish there we more, but I'll not find them all anyway! Vive Le France! MtM ***************************************** This Space Intentionally Left Blank Quote Link to comment
Les Gaulois (romary) Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 Thanks the lot for your love for my country. But I'm sorry there are very few geocachers in France. Cheers les Gaulois Quote Link to comment

+Cornix Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 To find caches near other cities in France use this search page: http://www.heavens-above.com/selecttown.asp?CountryID=FR Enter the name of the city and press the 'Submit' button. You'll get the coordinates of the city in degrees and decimals (DD). Go to the Geocaching 'Hide & Seek a Cache' page: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/ On that page look for this section: Or search by latitude/longitude format in decimal: ... Enter your latitude & longitude and press 'Submit'. That's all Cornix Quote Link to comment
