It's called "geocaching" and there are many resources for it online. It involves using a GPS device to find a specific spot with a certain cache in it. Typically this is something like a log book, where you write down/stamp something into it, and maybe a couple of small items that you can trade something for. Nothing of great value, for sure, but it's more for the hunt and the community of hunters than anything. Some of the items can even travel from place to place and have a way to track where they've been.

This is typically easy and free, though some want you to be vouched for by pre-existing members to make sure you're not just trying to take all the caches or something like that. Some also offer paid memberships with extra benefits (like plotting a trail of caches along a car route if you're going on a roadtrip or something like that).
