  • 摘要:Abstract Geocaching is being used as a medium for identification of new places and for dwelling in nature, which might influence even the proper selection of a target destination. Its feature is not only regional. The basic principle is to seek and look for and eventually find that secret hidden device called cache. On one side there stands an individual or a group of people, who made the box. They had hidden it at an interesting place and had registered it on the internet with accurate coordinates. To make the caches deposited and located in our territory available to foreigners it is necessary to translate the listing into a foreign language, most often into English, less often into German. So it is in other European countries as well. It is better to translate the listing of the cache and make it international, so also foreigners and tourists can look for it and learn something new about the place. When looking for a cache abroad, you are supposed to have at least a partial knowledge of a foreign language. Of course, in some cases you may collaborate with a translator. A large number of caches abroad are written in the relevant native language, or in English.
