Discover Hidden Treasure
This modern take on the traditional treasure hunt will get you out walking and hunting for treasure all at the same time!
Download the app, lock onto the GPS co-ordinate and you’re on your way to uncovering much more than hidden treasure though, as every geocache on the Ramsgate coast reveals some of our best locations and best-kept secrets.
Whether in Ramsgate Town, with its wealth of history waiting to be discovered at every turn; along beautiful lanes and coastal trails; across wide open beaches; through a natural wonderland of protected wildlife and stunning scenery. Wherever the clues take you, the real treasure is never far away.
Happy geocache hunting!
The Technology Behind the Mythology
This smart reinvention of the traditional treasure hunt uses GPS technology (available as an app on your smartphone) to track down hidden “caches” using the individual co-ordinates and clues which pinpoint their location.
To get started, create a free geocaching account and download the official Geocaching® app or use a GPS device.
