Geocaching Guides and Trips
Trips
We took part in a geocaching meeting on Rangitoto Island. But while most of the people came by ferry, we went there by kayak the day before. This boat trip and the following two days walking about 30km on the island was a test for our endurance and stamina. But it is worth it. This young volcano has lots of secrets to discover and a beauty of its own.
The geocache we went looking for (GCEC39) was off the beaten track. It starts at Anawhata at the west coast of the Waitakeres and leads you down to the beach and up into the forest again. From then you have to find your own way through the bush (there is a way, but it's barely visible) to a little waterfall that probably not many people have seen.
