It's all about exercise and a beautiful walk as you solve simple clues & learn about the local inhabitants that have risen, and fallen, in the park whilst also taking in Marble Arch, St James’s and Buckingham Palace!

Are you ready for a stroll with a difference?
Note: From previous players’ feedback, it’s definitely worth taking water and a snack to have along the way; there’s a supermarket and other food & drink shops right by the underground station.

Storyline
Before we start, here are some top tips:
- Please note that there aren’t ANY loos along the route, so it may be worth using the facilities at Green Park Underground Station (may charge a fee) before you start.
- At the other end of that cycle, the fountain (pic 1, hopefully in front of you) provides drinking water in the summer months, so help yourself if you’re thirsty!
- Lastly, from previous players’ feedback, it’s definitely worth taking water and a picnic or snack to have along the way; there’s a supermarket and other food & drink shops right by the underground station.
If you can't see the water fountain mentioned above, follow these directions from Green Park Underground Station:
Leave via the exit marked Green Park Buckingham Palace (pics 2 & 3). If you’ve come out of the correct one you should emerge straight out in front of the black Statue of Goddess Diana Water Fountain so stop there and ignore the rest of the instructions below.
If you’ve exited the station at any other exit (there are several), you’ll either be on the north or south side of busy Piccadilly. You should see the trees of Green Park to the south, so enter the park to the LEFT< of the structure with the green roof (pics 4 & 5). If you find yourself taking tea at The Ritz, you’ve gone too far left!
If you’ve entered the park via the gate (pic 5), walk along the path for about 70m and there will be a turning on the RIGHT> (pic 6), you should then see the fountain up ahead.
Touch Continue when you can see it.
