Collect clues at each location to build a secret password, developing problem-solving skills while learning local heritage. This outdoor activity combines community connection and cultural education, promoting wellbeing through walking-based exploration. Meet the host again at the endpoint for the group debrief and prize giving ceremony where winners will be crowned!
