Geocaching

Explore all that Mill Creek has to offer by searching and findingGeocaching caches we have strategically placed in fun and exciting areas for the whole family! 

What is geocaching? 
It’s the world’s largest high-tech treasure hunt and a fun way to explore our community! Geocaching is fun for all ages and great for families, friends, and organizations. With a smartphone and a bit of curiosity, you can explore more than 100 caches in Mill Creek.

Treasures in Mill Creek?
One exciting element of Geocaching is finding the hidden treasure or “cache.” The geocache is a type of container which often contains small trinkets. Searching for a geocache can take you to places you might never have otherwise seen, places off the beaten path, and to other hidden gems in our city.

Where are the City Geocaches?

Feedback from Cachers

"The Mill Creek caches have been great from the perspective of taking me places in the city that I would never have gone to otherwise.
Thanks for placing all these treasures...in the treasures."

It's something you often hear from geocachers - I don't think I have ever been to this little park before and never would have known about it if it wasn't for this cache. TFTC!
