Geocaching Adventure Lab is a new type of cache that is played with a separate app. The platform allows you to create, play, and share location-based experiences and games. The Adventure Lab app guides players through the process of finding clues, solving puzzles, and completing Adventures one location at a time. Currently, Adventure Lab caches do not appear on the main geocaching map.
How to find an adventure lab cache? Download the appropriate app to your smartphone, open it up, provide your current profile information, and then search the map for adventure lab caches around you. If you’re already a Geocaching member, these Adventure Lab Caches count towards your Geocaching.com statistics and total finds.
In September 2020 South Africa boasted 39 Adventure Labs published in 7 of the 9 provinces. This has dramatically increased to 66 Adventure labs by December 2020. January 2021 sees the number increased to 74.
