Voor wie het is

Art lovers, couples and families with school-age children will enjoy a little over an hour in the Botanics, following a 1.4 km route past Inverleith House, Andy Goldsworthy's Slate, Hole, Wall, the Rock Garden and Ascending Form (Gloria).

Veelgestelde vragen

Is this a good option for an easy, relaxing walk in an Edinburgh garden?
Yes. The difficulty level is easy, the route covers about 1.4 km inside the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, and most people take a little over an hour. You move at your own pace between art installations set in the landscape, so it suits a calm, unhurried outing.
Is there a self-guided tour of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh?
This quest is one. Your phone leads you from stop to stop, tells the story of each place and sets a puzzle in what you see. Stops include Inverleith House, Slate, Hole, Wall by Andy Goldsworthy, the Rock Garden and Ascending Form (Gloria). There is no guide and no group to join.
Where does the walk start and finish?
It starts at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and finishes at the Hammered Steel Gate next to the East Gate. It is not a loop, so you end at a different spot from where you began. The full route is about 1.4 km.
Can we play as a family or group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, it is free to play, so families, couples and friends can all join in on their own phones or share one. There is no set time to book: start whenever you like. The easy difficulty and short distance make it a good fit for families with school-age children.
Can we pause and finish later?
Yes. You can pause the quest at any point and continue later. It runs on your phone throughout, so make sure it is fully charged before you set off, or bring a power bank, since the walk and puzzles take a little over an hour.
