Geocaching - Exploring Trondheim, Norway (Total finds: 294)

in Pinmapple2 years ago (edited)
We traveled to Trondheim last week. It was really nice to get away and to visit my parents who just moved there. Me and @pusen haven't geocached in Trondheim before, and we was really looking forward to explore a new city.

We geocached almost every day. We found in total 34 caches in 7 days!

Short explanation of geocaching:
People hide caches around the world. The cache can be a box, a small thing, a tube, a micro tube, magnetic tube etc. You need the geocaching app, because without it you don't know where the caches is hidden. It's often a hint too. You haven't found a cache if you haven't signed the log book. After you have signed you can log it as found on the app.

We found 19 caches around this sea line, in one day. The smiley faces are those we found.

I'm not going to show all the caches, because there was too many of them. I want to show the fun and unique ones.

The most unique cache did we spot right away. I don't know if you see it, but this mailbox is actually the cache. This is one of my favorite caches I have ever found.

But when we opened the mailbox, we hoped that the log was there. But we had to open all of these kinder eggs. The worst part is: the log wasn't in any of the kinder eggs. You haven't found the cache if you can't log your name. But luckily did we figure it out in the end. The log was placed in a secret room under the mailbox. We spent around 30 minutes on figure it out.

An another cache was a xmas cache.

We hoped to see a decorated xmas tree, because we have found one before. But we did find this xmas pig with a cache in his mouth. I love the creativity. And it's not far from the trail either.

We was looking for this next "plankcache" for 30-45 minutes.

We had to think hard, and we knew that this must be like the fun and tricky ones. It was a lot of stones and planks in a pile. We didn't think the cache could be one like this, but @pusen found it in a random plank.

We got to explore a lot of Trondheim on these trips, and we get to know the city better too. We got to see a lot of beautiful views.

But even tho there are a lot of pretty places, it's also a lot of bad ones. We have found some syringes and @pusen has also stepped on a nail. Luckily did he not notice the nail before we was back home again. It luckily didn't went through his shoe.

This is what we explored on the geocaching trip in Trondheim:

We found a cache by this lighthouse.

A view from the trail we walked for five hours.

Some art at the end of the trail.

We had a little "lunch" in an old and cute cafe. Beer, wine and carrotcake was what we needed.

From the old bridge in Trondheim. This view are on a lot of postcards in this city.


We had to climb a lot of trees too, but luckily did we spot them all from the ground.

Some of the caches did take a lot of time to find. But most of them was easy to spot. That is the reason why we did find so many caches.

These are the most common caches on this trip:

We was in the city centre Monday evening.

And we therefore had the opportunity to find three caches in the city centre. I didn't take any pictures, but one of the caches was so well hidden because it wasn't hidden at all. It was a normal warning sign. No one would know if they wasn't geocaching. It was placed with magnets and the log was behind it.

We found a lot of caches in total in this geocaching trip. We are looking forward to find more the next time we are visiting Trondheim. Because we had so much fun finding these.

Me and @pusen deep inside the woods.

Thank you so much for reading!

Wow looks like so much fun 😊

It's funny, I have such a pig too. It was my dog's favorite toy 😔

I didn't realize it was a dog toy. That makes it even better, haha.
