What lengths will you go to log a Smiley?
Connecting the two hiking areas of Bellwald and Ernen, the Goms Brücke in Switzerland suspends 92 meters (100 yards) above the rushing Rhone River and extends 280 meters (300 yards) long. You’ll need to get to the other side, knees buckling, palms sweating, to sign the log.

Happy World Animal Day!
Whether big or small, soft or spiky, all animals deserve to be celebrated. What animals have you encountered while geocaching?

Quokka crazy!
Quokkas are called "world's happiest animals" because of their adorable smiles and sweet disposition. They're mostly found on Rottnest Island off the western coast of Australia. There are as many as 12,000 of them there, alongside 39 currently active geocaches. While logging your find, take as many photos of them as you like, but please do not hug them (illegal) or feed them (bad idea in general). Have your geocached with a furry friend?

Well of course there's a geocache here!
Hope you have some Travel Bugs® to trade. What gives you goosebumps when you geocache?

Warped fairytale.
Krzywy Domek (Crooked House) in Sopot, Poland is a warped fairy tale inspired building that hosts homes, restaurants, shops, and a radio station. It also hosts an atypical geocache. Watch out, if you look for too long you may get dizzy!

Kunsthof Arcade cache.
This geocache is hidden within the Kunsthof Arcade: a small, quiet group of connected courtyards in the middle of Dresden, Germany. The facades of the buildings, which were designed by local artists, might stop you in your tracks. Every half hour (rain or shine) water drips down through and along the drains and gutters, and onlookers are treated to a concert of the elements. They call it the wall that plays music.

Who mows the roof?
The village of Saksun in the Faroe Islands is home to one geocache, 37 people, and a mob of sheep who wander freely among the green pastures. Our only question is: who mows the roof?

Really remote caching.
Yep — that IS a whole bunch of penguins; otherwise known as a "waddle of penguins". Chinstrap penguins will waddle up to you as you log this wonderful EarthCache on Deception Island. A former whaling station, the area now serves as a tourist destination and scientific outpost. Where's the furthest you've journeyed for an EarthCache?
