Who it's for

Families with children, couples and older visitors heading to the ASTRA open-air museum get a story-led route round its park, from the carts barn and windmills to a house from Desești in Maramureș, a Rășinari shepherd homestead and a Mahmudia fisherman's house. Expect just under two hours and 1.7 km on foot. Anyone who wants a live guide to question, or who struggles on uneven, sloping ground, should choose something else.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a separate ticket for the ASTRA Museum?
Yes. The museum entrance ticket is bought separately from the quest, so get it before you start. The quest itself works on one ticket for the whole group playing together on a phone, so you only need one quest ticket however many of you walk the route.
Where does the quest start and finish inside the museum?
It starts at the ASTRA Museum panel and finishes at the Mahmudia fisherman's house. It is not a loop, so you end at a different spot. On the way you pass the carts barn, several mills, a rest stop, the Desești house, Șeica Mică and the Rășinari shepherd homestead.
How long does it take and how far is the walk?
Most players take just under two hours, walking and puzzles included, over about 1.7 km. The route includes a planned rest stop partway through. The terrain is varied with some changes in elevation, so wear comfortable shoes and allow extra time if you like to linger at the houses.
Is it good for kids?
It is a family favourite, built around stories of 20th century peasant life and puzzles you solve by looking at the mills, barns and houses in front of you. It suits children who can walk for close to two hours on uneven, sloping paths, with adults helping on the trickier clues.
Do we need to book a time, and can we pause?
No booking of a time slot is needed. You start whenever you like on your phone, with no group to join and no guide to wait for. You can pause the quest at any point, for example at the rest stop, and continue later from where you left off.
Is this a game inside ASTRA Museum?
It is a self-guided outdoor quest set at ASTRA Museum. The route begins at the museum panel and finishes near the Mahmudia fisherman’s house while you solve 13 location-based clues.
What is the Country Life quest about?
The experience uses the museum setting to explore everyday rural life, crafts and homes from 20th-century Romania through an educational puzzle trail.
Who can enjoy this ASTRA Museum quest?
It is designed as an educational outdoor activity for adults, children and seniors. Check the museum’s own visiting rules and opening times before planning your visit.

Museum context

A puzzle trail through Romania’s rural heritage

ASTRA’s Open Air Museum brings together traditional homes, workshops and technical installations in Dumbrava Sibiului. This quest uses that setting for an educational trail about rural life rather than presenting a generic city walk.

The museum describes its open-air collection as more than 400 buildings spread across 96 hectares, so allow time for the museum visit itself as well as the game route. Playable languages: English, Romanian.
