About Geocaching

New to geocaching? Have no idea what it is? No problem! We have caches for all experience levels. Geocaching is a treasure hunt that combines technology and the outdoors, engaging people through GPS tracking and clues to find cache boxes. Caches can take on various forms, ranging from a Tupperware container to a birdhouse or fake rock, and can be hidden or placed in plain sight. Once a cache is found and opened, geocachers sign the log inside the cache and return it to its hiding place before moving on to the next challenge.

Hidden Treasures GeoTrail

We invite you to visit Berkeley County, WV, for the first time or welcome you back again. Berkeley County was established in 1772 in the state of Virginia. To help celebrate, we launched our Hidden Treasures GeoTrail! The trail allows you to travel throughout the county and visit our hidden treasures while learning more about where we call home. Enjoy the back roads that follow the same paths Native Americans once traveled for hunting; see the areas where locals fought the Tories during the Revolutionary War, or where brothers fought against each other during the American Civil War. Experience what makes Berkeley County, WV, rich in history and culture.
