Veelgestelde vragen

Is this treasure hunt in Newcastle, County Down or Newcastle upon Tyne?
It is in Newcastle, County Down, in Northern Ireland, where the Mournes meet the sea. The route loops around the top end of town, passing stops such as Percy French, Silver Wave, the Slieve Donard Hotel grounds and Tails of Flight before returning to where you began.
Is it played on a digital app?
Yes. You play on your phone: the app leads you from stop to stop and sets a puzzle based on what is in front of you. You can start whenever you like, pause partway and continue later, and one ticket covers your whole group up to the stated number of devices.
How long does it take and how far is the walk?
Allow about 40 minutes for a loop of around 1.2 km. It starts and finishes at the same point, so you end up back where you began, with ten stops along the way including public art, historic buildings and viewpoints.
Is it good for kids?
It suits families looking for a short, light outdoor activity. The puzzles ask you to spot things at each stop rather than follow long stories, and the walk is only about 1.2 km, so children who enjoy looking for details and helping with clues should keep up easily.
Do we need to book a time, and can we play after dark?
There is no time slot to book. The route is open 24 hours a day, but daylight is the better choice, since several stops are viewpoints and artworks that are easier to see and enjoy, and to photograph, when it is light.
