What to expect
You'll start with a trail on your device that drops you at a location and presents a puzzle or question about what you're seeing. Answer correctly and the next clue arrives. Stuck? Use hints, look things up, or skip forward. The walking is steady but manageable—you're covering The Rocks at a local's pace, not a tourist's rush. Expect some hills and uneven ground. Most people finish in 2–3 hours depending on how deep they dig into each puzzle.
Good to know
Bring a charged phone and comfortable shoes. The trail works with public transport stops nearby if you need a break. Not ideal if you have heart or serious fitness concerns. Service animals are welcome.
