Geocache Description:


Come and enjoy a day of discoveries and activities!

Join us at Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site of Canada for the 2nd Annual Geocaching Event.

Two new geocaches will be launched to coincide with this event, alongside with the existing six geocaches - a whole new way to see the Fortress! Back in 1744, The Fortress of Louisbourg was one of the busiest harbours in North America and one of France's key centres of trade and military strength in the New World.

Geocachers will first check-in at the McLennan Centre (formerly known as the museum) on site. Once there you will receive the agenda & briefing at 10am, including the waypoints necessary as you will be exploring the Fortress. An Intro to Geocaching will be made available based on demand.

Sign-up sheet will be at the check-in site. Throughout the event geocachers can socialize and find shelter at the McLennan Centre where warm drinks (coffee, tea & hot chocolate) will be available.
