The TRWD Trinity Trails Geocaching Adventure takes you on a journey throughout the entire trail system to discover hidden gems, historically significant locations and some of the most popular spots along the trails of the Trinity River in Fort Worth, TX. It's perfect for families, geocaching newbies and seasoned "cachers" alike.

The TRWD Trinity Trails Geocaching Adventure consists of 30 geocaches hidden along the Trinity River! An award awaits those clever enough to earn 20 points by answering the question located inside each cache and participating in approved river activities. Details on how to get this award are in the "Take the Challenge" section.

While on your Trinity Trails adventure, you'll marvel at the 100+ miles of scenic beauty that the Trinity River in Fort Worth has to offer. On any given geocache quest, you are likely to see runners, walkers, cyclists, families or even an occasional horse sharing the trail with you (it is Fort Worth, after all).

Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game. Using a GPS-enabled device (you can even use your smartphone), navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the container hidden at that location, known as a "geocache". We're warning you, once you experience the thrill of the treasure hunt, you'll be hooked.

In order to complete your Challenge Passport, you must earn up to 20 points by logging the cache and answering the question inside the container.
