Explore Your World — One Day at a Time
Your 12-day global geocaching journey starts here.
Welcome to your 2025 Geocaching Advent Box — a little world tour crafted just for you. This year’s theme was inspired by the idea of a global passport… a celebration of geocaching across regions, cultures, landscapes, and adventures. Every item inside was thoughtfully designed, curated, and created to bring you a moment of joy, wonder, or inspiration as you open each day.
Whether you're traveling near or far, chasing an FTF or savoring a quiet walk in the woods, this Advent Box is our way of sharing the magic of geocaching with you — one small discovery at a time. Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s explore the world together!
