Letterboxing

Letterboxing is an exciting adventure that resembles a “treasure hunt” for boxes hidden outside. These boxes that you are looking for are usually hidden in places like parks, walking paths or other public areas.

In order to get started you will need to have clues in order to find the boxes. There are several sites that can lead you to clues in your area you live in or are visiting. In some cases you will need a compass to locate the box, as the clues will say go NORTH etc.

Once you locate a letterbox there will be a log book that you stamp your stamp in and a rubber stamp to stamp in your book. Usually you should bring an ink pad with you because most boxes don't include them because they dry out over time. Please close the box back up and secure it back where you found it.
