Why are the most found caches not the most interesting?

Combining the data from the previous two weeks we find the area's where caches have the most founds. If you think that are also the most interesting caches, your are in for a surprise.

The area with the most logs per cache is Walsleben. There you find two autobahn caches: Walsleben - West and Walsleben - Ost, they have more than four thousand log each and not many other caches in the neighbourhood. Giving this area an average of more than 1350 found logs per cache.

If you've read the two previous post, you might have guessed Hamburg will end up high in this list, and you are correct. It has the second position with an average of 1160 found logs  per cache.

The many caches in Borken in Wernigerode give it's it third place with almost 1140 logs per cache. Positions number four and five are for Neuzelle and Goldelund. The only two other area's that have more than one thousand logs per cache. Both areas have a geotrail that attracts many logs. Schlaubetal- Rundherum in Neuzelle and Zwischen den Meeren near Goldelund.


You probably know with more than 35 thousand founds Lego - einer ist zuviel is Germany's most found geocache. But since there are many caches in Berlin with not many founds, the average number of founds in Berlin is so low, it doesn't appear in the top ten.
