Happy New Zealand trip with geocaching.A pity were with muggle friends and cant visit as much as geocaches as we like. I appreciate all the caches we passed and visited.Thanks, Ashsal, for the cache. Greetings from Taiwan.

Lovely spot to explore cache all good here signed log tftc

TFTC CZ Nice spot.

Private property

Travelled southwards to Lumsden this afternoon and picked up a couple of caches along the way. Made my way through the trees to this one because I didnt know any better. At GZ it was a quick find. Realised too late (not that it mattered too much) that the track in the direction of the cache actually starts on the bend in the road . #7225. TFTC.

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

Grabbed a coffee from The Coffee Bomb before walking up to get this one. Very cute walk and an easy find.Found with the Hump Ridge Crew Muggles.

Thank you for the charming find Greetings from San Francisco, loving your beautiful island.

Bit damp, could do with some sun.

On our long journey from Germany to Australia / Tasmania / New Zealand / Dubai of a total of 3.5 months, we also crossed NZ from north to south and collected a few caches.This one was found quickly. TFTC

We were able to write our names into the dry logbook and the cache is now waiting in its hiding place for the next geocacher to search for it.Thanks a lot to Ashsal for leading us here and for showing this place and of course also for maintaining this geocache!Best wishes from the North Sea, Germany, from Cuxine . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ________________oooooooo____________oooooooooooooo_________oooooooooooooooooo________oooooooooooooooooooo_______oooooooooooooooooooo____oooooo_______oooooooooooooooooooo___ooo__ooo_______oooooooooooooooooooo__oooo____oo________oooooooooooooooooooooooo_________oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo_oooo_______oooooooooooooooooo________ooooo___ooooooooooooooooooooooo_________oo_ooo____oooooooooooooooooooooooooo_____oooooooo__ooo_oooooo__________oo___oooo_______ooo__ooo_ooo______oooo__ooo_______oooo___ooo__ooo___ooooo___ooo_____ooo___ooo____oo____ooo____oooooo__ooo____ooooooo____________ooo_____ooooo____ooo

Appreciated the walk after hours of driving to get to Garston - cache exactly as described. T4tc

We spent our first night in NZ in Garston. We were so happy to walk to this cache, because after a few months in South East Asia we missed walking in the woods with pine trees (like in Switzerland back home)

Found with Halibr at Garston, a cute little hidden track! Wouldn't know it was there if it weren't for the cache. Great coffee too at the bomb tftc!

On my way back to Europe at the coffee place, found this very nice cache. After finding it our Coffee was ready. Tftc!

Great place to stretch the legs. Tfth!

Stopped by on our way from Te Arnu to Queenstown. A quick find at GZ on a lovely sunny morning. Spent a while looking at the view and listening to the birds then on our way. TFTC

Tftc good find for the kids

Quick find on a super cold and snowy day. Cache is all good and dry. Thanks

Stopped here on our way to Queenstown

Stopped in Gaston on the way to Milford sound for a coffee and thought I would do a kiwi cache while I was here. Good hide. Log a little damp but still able to sign. TFTC

Thanks ??

Nice little track. GPS was jumpy but the rock ledge was easy to spot

Lunch was the bomb and so was this cache.

We are a French couple working at Garston Hops for a month. We had a walk in Garston and discover this small trail. The cache was easy to find even with trees are making the GPS confused.
Greetings from France.

1st find in NZ

Nice little walk through the treeline. Thanks.

TFTC nice wee walk good stopping point

Easy find.
TFTC!

Yay! TFTC! I came all the way from Vancouver BC Canada to find this cache Thanks for being part of the adventure!

Nice quick find. On the way to Invercargle after tackling the Grand Traverse tramp. TFTC TNLNSL. Very cute little family nearby. Worth a stop.

What a great little spot. Found with hulioxxx and samdoggy

Climbed the track, went to far and then backtracked back to the cache

Loved the characters along the way.

Happy to find, thanks for the hide

Day 3 on our holiday in New Zealand. On the way from Twizel to Te Anau, we also visited this traditional cache, found it, and signed the logbook.



***T4T$ - Many Thanks to Ashsal for hiding and maintaining the cache.*** ️

Po Kepleru se přesouvame se Zuzkou na západ a tak jsme po cestě navštívili pár pokladů už jsem šla pomalu po tmě a tak jsem si bohužel nevšimla té rodinky ale kešku jsem našla díky

Today I drove from Te Anau to Kingston. To shorten the drive a bit (or to delay hours) I took the opportunity to pick up some caches. Thank you.

Thank you for bringing us to this spot. Loved it TFTC

Zajímavé místo, nejen ten přívěs s jídlem a kafem u cesty ale i tady kousek nahoře v lese. Takový les se u nad nevidí. Při cestě z Wanaky do Te Anau jsem stavili na kafe. Slovo dalo slovo a kuk do mapy geocachingu....pár metrů je kes....Tak hurá za ní, na místě vše v pořádku. Díky za listing, keš i místo. Zdravíme z České republiky.

Interesting place, not only the trailer with food and coffee by the road, but also up here in the forest. You don't see such a forest anywhere. On the way from Wanaka to Te Anau I bet on coffee. The word gave the word and see in the geocaching map....there is a kes a few meters....Hurray for her, everything is fine on the spot. Thanks for the listing, cache and place. Greetings from the Czech Republic.

Found with Cympull. TFC

Thanks for your amazing cache. I really appreciate the time you took to set up and maintain your caches.
Found with Fisha1288.
#2300 today.
Cheers, Cympull.

Lovely park and walk even in the rain. TFTC

Cool wee family to greet along the way. Tftc

Cute spot, TFTC!

Trouvée I love when geocaches make me discover secret places I would never stop at !

Had no idea about this walk, no view from the top, cool "residents" on the way thnks

Hallo, auf einem Road-Trip über die Südinsel Neuseelands auch diesen Cache gut gefunden.
TFTC die Krümelmonsters

My son was super happy to find his first cache Tftc

Thank you

We wondered how we'd get to GZ with no path on our maps, but the way became obvious as we got close. Love finding these off the main drag spots, which is why we enjoy geocaching so much. Thanks for bringing us here.

Found en route for Kingston before flying out tomorrow.
What a well cared for village.
Greetings from sunny (300 sunny days p.a.) Serre Chevalier in the French Alps and thanks for the cache.

A coffee stop and I went to find this cache. TFTC

McCone family

We are on holiday from California mostly touring the South Island by campervan. After an excellent visit to Milford Sound a couple days ago, today we are on our way from Te Anau to Queenstown with a few stops along the way. Tried to make the approach to this one harder, but once I found the namesake path, it was a fairly short search. Thanks.

tftc (:

All good here. On our way from Wanaka to Te Anau. Just had a significant birthday and the gift was a day out caching and a cruise at Doubtful Sound. Tftc.

Quick find, liked seeing the McCone family nearby. TFTC

It took longer than I expected. All good with the cache. thanks

This one took a while to find, even though I had been standing right above it. Lovely little walk

Easy find

Beautiful walk

Stopped off for lunch on way home from 4 wheel drive weekend. TFTC

Its been a long time in the planning but finally the week long trip to the South Island to complete the Routeburn Track is here. Day #1 we have landed and are on the way to Te Anau.

Took the little walk (the hard way) whilst coffee was brewing below. Found the cache and then noticed the easy trail back out.

Thanks for the cache.

The plan has been a in the cards for a while. I failed to complete the Routeburn track due to poort weather and wanted to finish it.
5 years on, I invited Keylev to come along as I was sure there was some caching to be done. a year on and here we are.

TFTC

Nice easy find for us today on the way to Invercargill.
TFTC

Quick stop to get away from a big line of traffic. Headed wrong at first and didn't see the little trail. Quick find at gz though, thanks

Love this place. The the family. Hanks for bringing us here. TFTC.

We didn't have time to explore when we biked past on Wednesday (we urgently needed a cafe stop) so we stopped as we drove back from Kingston today. What fun! Went over the top and 'admired' the car junk paddock... realised that this is the safe route for children going to and from school n the other side of the hill.

Found on the way to Te Anau, what a fun little walk that we would have never found if not for this cache, thank you!

Super cute family! Wish I could have walked to the top but in a bit of foot pain. I did meet a friendly fantail!

Easy find. Take a coffee and a quick geo.
**TFTC""

A beautiful day for a present walk. TFTC

A neat little walkway through the bush. wee womble #1 had the GPS and wee womble #2 made the find. Thanks for the cache.

Thanks for putting this out for us to visit!

We enjoyed the drive / walk around!
great hidden spot.

What a cool surprise. We stopped fir coffee and then walked in. A nice secret pathway. Thanks for the placement ashsal

Wow what a sneaky Well hidden track...I would not have visited here if it weren't for Geocaching.
How wonderfull it got me here to this special place 1many thanks

Very cool walk. Nice work on the families. Our favourites were the McCones and the Mort Monsters.

Loved the McCones. Tftc

Our stop for lunch on day one of the cycle trail and time enough to bag this cache, which was a bit more of a climb with some huff and puff than I initially expected. TFTC

So great to see new plants in such a quite soace

Nice quick find with spot on coordinates. Found after a delicious lunch at the takeaway van and a visit to the hidden village. TFTC

Away on a trip to tramp the Kepler track with a friend... we flew into Queenstown and grabbed a rental car and then headed this way. This was an area my friend grew up in and when to the local school. So while she stopped for a coffee I thought it would be rude not to grab a cache whilst here.
A quick wander up this track and I had cache in hand.

Found with StreetWalkerNZ on day 2 of our geocaching trip down south. Today we are travelling from Twizel to Te Anau, the day started with clear blue skies (but rather chilly) and ended in rain as we neared our destination.
We were lucky to find the entrance to this lovely wee walk (on the side road S 45° 27.981 E 168° 41.080 approx) so didn't take long to get to GZ. Quite a few possible locations to hide a cache, luckily SW went further afield and there found the cache. Thanks for bringing me here and TFTC.
