Geocaching HQ and community volunteers are not in any way responsible or liable for caches or their placement. Community volunteer reviewers are geocachers, like you, who volunteer their time to support the game of geocaching and the geocaching community. When you submit a geocache page for review, a member of the global team of community volunteer reviewers (also known as reviewers) will check it against these guidelines. Find additional guidance about hiding caches in our Help Center.įor publication, geocaches must follow these guidelines and any applicable Regional Geocaching Policies. The more variety of geocaches you find, the better you will understand how to create an enjoyable experience for other geocachers.

We encourage you to find at least 20 geocaches before hiding one. With these guidelines we aim to balance the needs and rights of the geocaching community, land managers, and the environment to ensure that geocaching can be enjoyed for years to come. Following the geocaching guidelines is important to protect the game and the environment in which we play. Together, we review and adapt the guidelines as the world changes and the game evolves.

Geocaching HQ has developed these guidelines in collaboration with the international community of volunteers and geocachers since September 2000.
