How the stops unlock

Just start walking. Each chapter unlocks once you have walked a little further, so there is nothing to find and no fixed route to follow.

    Perfect for little legs. Short hops between stops and lots of things to touch and spot. She told everyone at nursery about the badge.

    A lovely morning out. Bring snacks and wellies, it gets muddy near the end. The ending of The Rainbow Crystals got a big cheer.

    Thank you! We've added a little extra signpost so the tricky stop is easier to spot. See you on the next one.

  • Example review
    Did it with an eight-year-old and a two-year-old and it somehow worked for both. The eight-year-old read the clues out to her brother. Proper family afternoon.
