Geocaching
Hiking with younger kids ? Geocaching is the ideal activity to do while hiking ! It’s an activity in which an item, or a container holding a number of items, is hidden at a particular location for GPS users to find by means of coordinates. A true treasure hunt in modern times. There are many circuits in the vendée and actually all over the world too but the ones we enjoy the most are near the Jaunay lake. You can find the trails in the Pays des Achards here or you can download the Geocaching app !
