Geocaching in Mississippi River Country
The Great River Road and the ten Mississippi River states provide incredible geocaching opportunities. Hundreds of caches are hidden at points along the entire Great River Road and thousands more caches are hidden throughout each Mississippi River state. Caches are hidden in some of the regions most historic, culturally-significant and scenic locations.
For those unfamiliar with geocaching, it is an exciting outdoor game in which players use a handheld GPS unit to find hidden treasures, called “caches.”
