Where does Einstein cache?

Last week we found out Switzerland has the most favourites relative to the number of found logs. Today we are going to look where the caches with those many favourites can be found.

We see a number of hotspots south of Zürich. The top one with more than fifteen percent is Herrliberg. The caches of cassiopeias contribute a lot to this.

The second place is for Mönchaltorf. Two teams Fortunei and anbolusa make a great contribution here. Effretikon, also in the area of Zürich comes in third. Don Rodolpho plays a big part in this area. Both have about fourteen and a half percent favourites.

Other regions in Zwiterland have also a high percentage of favourites. Near Bern we find Büren an der Aare with almost fourteen percent favourites. Here we can find many great caches by Power-Ey. Near Basel we find another series of hotspot. With more than thirteen percent favourites Fehren has the highest rating. A shout out to meury for their caches.

Albert Einstein studied at the polytechnic in Zürich, from 1896 to 1900. From 1909, he was a Professor in this city.

Which is Einsteins most favourite geocaching country?

A few weeks ago we looked at which country had the most favourites per cache. But as Albert Einstein teached us: "Every thing is relative". So this week we don't look at the number of favourites an average cache scores, but to the favourites relative to the number of found logs in a country.

When we look at the numbers we see again the countries with few caches score the extremes. Yemen with only two caches with eighteen founds and five favourite ends in the first place with almost thirty percent favourites per log. Second are the Wallis and Futuna Islands which only cache collects with twenty five percent favourites. Third place for Tonga with just under twenty five percent favourites.

Again we look at the countries with at least ten thousands of  caches. Then we got the following result:

Switzerland	7.4%
Netherlands	7.0%
Belgium	6.8%
Germany	6.6%
Ireland	6.3%
Austria	5.8%
Denmark	5.8%
Norway	5.5%
Sweden	5.4%
United Kingdom	5.0%
New Zealand	5.0%
South Africa	4.9%
Finland	4.8%
Australia	4.7%
Italy	4.6%
France	4.5%
Canada	4.5%
Spain	4.5%
Slovakia	4.3%
Czechia	4.1%
Portugal	4.1%
United States	3.9%
Poland	3.2%
Japan	3.1%

Who would expect the country Einstein moved to in 1895 and became a citizen of in 1901 would be his favourite country.

When we compare this week top with that of a tree weeks ago, we see the Netherlands has dropped one place with seven precent. Belgium gained one place and Germany lost one. The last country with more than six percent favourites per log is Ireland.

Where are the most favorite caches by logs in The Netherlands?

Last week we looked at the areas in the Netherlands where caches get on average the most favourites. It's logical that caches that get found more, also get more favourites. So this gives easy caches and caches in areas with many geocachers an advantage. This week I look at in which areas where we look at where are caches getting the most favourites per log.

The  top area with almost 15% is Broek between Sneek and Joure. With many caches of xNTM-27xx contributing to this result. Congratulations.

Just as last week the Beekbergen near Apeldoorn comes in second place with 12.5%. Last week number one is now in third position. The area of Malden near Nijmegen collects 12.4% favourites. A shout out to Geo Chaos and remralcache for their great caches.


Last weeks number five has gained one position. The caches near Helmond collect 11% favourites. Well done djpebe. In fifth place also with 11% is Peest near Assen. Where klinki creates high rated caches.

Where are the most favorite caches in The Netherlands?

Last week we saw that in The Netherlands on average caches are rewarded with almost thirty favourites. This week I show you where the caches with the most favourites can be found.

The map below combines two statistics the number of caches determines the opacity, where the areas that are the most transparent have the fewest caches and the most opaque ones the most. The average number of favourites sets the hue. The hottest cache area, those with the most favourites are coloured red. Blue for the area with the least caches and green is in between.

The top area for favourites with almost one hundred and eighty favourites per cache is Malden near Nijmegen. Many caches by remralcache make this happen.

Near Apeldoorn there are two hot spots. One with almost one hundred and ten in Uchelen. Another one in Beekbergen with almost one hunderd favoures per cache. In the first area we see many high rated caches by Geo Chaos and in the second by Josvstaalduinen.

Next is Hippolytushoef where De Bosmannetjes have created many interesting caches giving this area an average of almost eighty favourites per cache. The caches of djpebe helped Helmond to be in the fifth place with just under sixty favourites per cache.

The most average favourite caches In Germany

Last week we saw that places with a large number of caches (cities) also accumulate many favourites. I wonder what the result is when we divide the number of favourites in an area by then number of caches in that area. That will give us the average number of favourites for a cache in that area. In the map below we can see where caches get many favourites.

As expected with the results from last week in mind the top result are Einhausen, between Lorsch and Bürstadt, and Wachtendonk. Both places manage to receive almost two hundreds favourites per cache. Again a my congratulations and thanks for creating great caches to die Helden and Hotbina.


The third position with more than seventy favourites per cache is for the city of Hamburg. Quite an accomplishment since cities are also hosts to many uninteresting micro's. With just over sixty favourites per cache is Waldsolms, where finkenpiraten have created high rated caches.

Also just over sixty favourites per cache can be found in Rodgau and also in Friedrichsdorf. High rated caches in the first town are created by Plotino in the second one by TCapitano.

Where can you find the most favourites in Germany?

Last weeks I showed the number of caches and number of founds. But I prefer quality over quantity. Last week we've seen caches with a large number of finds don't have to be high quality caches. This week I try a different metric for quality: Favourites. 

So this week I show you the number of favourites per square kilometre. Off course areas with many geoaches are also areas where many favourites are given. But there are differences with last weeks maps.

Despite the fact that Hamburg is only placed in fifth position with regards to the number of caches, it's this week's number one with more than five hundred favourites per square kilometre. The number two in number of caches, Berlin, is here also number two with just under five hundered caches.

On the third place we find the first non urban area. The caches from die Helden and their friends have given the the area between Lotsch and Burstadt more than four hundreds and sixty favourites per square kilometres.

Then again two urban areas. Fourth place for Dresden with just over four hundreds favourites. Hanover has the fifth place with over three hundreds and thirty. At last a compliment for Hotbina, with two hundreds and  seventy five favourites per square kilometre, their caches put the small town of Wachtendonk in sixth position on this list.
