Frequently asked questions
What makes this quest different from just wandering Cherry Creek?
Because youâre part of Oz. Youâll walk ~2.1 km around downtown, solve puzzles tied to the Oz story, hear original songs, and notice spots youâve passed before but never saw in this way. It turns Cherry Creek into a fairy-tale trail.
Could this be a great date-night idea?
Absolutely. Start near the Ross-Cherry Creek Library branch, stroll through murals and plazas, solve clues together, then finish nearby for drinks. The mix of story, sunset possibilities, and shared mystery makes for a memorable date.
Is this something teenagers or older kids will like?
Yesâtheyâll enjoy the fantasy, the puzzles, and the Oz characters. With 15 clue locations and ~2,760 steps, itâs just the right amount of adventure without being overwhelming. Plus lots of photo ops!
What if I canât finish in one go?
No problem. Because itâs self-guided, you can pauseâstop for a snack, rest, take photosâand pick up right where you left off. The app remembers your progress so no rush.
Will I see well-known Denver spots or just hidden stuff?
Both. Youâll see public art, murals, library branches you know, but also subtle featuresâarchitecture details, lesser-known plazas, quiet alleys you mightâve ignored before.
