Overview

Turning Edinburgh Into an Adventure Playground! Get a unique perspective of Old Town/Royal Mile on this self-guided, interactive treasure hunt. It's the best way to explore the city!

On your adventure, unlock a hidden trail by finding clues, solving puzzles and completing challenges, earning points along the way.

During your Quest you will not only discover the city's highlights but explore hidden gems, learn some fun facts about the places you visit and see things that most people just pass by.

As the activity is all self-guided through the app, you can start your Quest when you want (must be played during daylight hours), there are no set starting/ending times. No groups to follow.

You can go at your own pace, stopping for longer in one location, taking a break or having a snack in one of the many cafes and pubs along the trail OR you can make it a race and try to get to the top of the city leaderboard!

Instant acess with nothing to print from home. Will you conquer the Quest?

Explore Edinburgh's Royal Mile & Old Town area and unlock a hidden trail by finding clues, solving puzzles & completing challenges, and earning points along the way all self-guided through the Go Quest Adventures app. See the city's highlights, explore its hidden gems, and learn some fun facts along the way.

Your Quest will begin at the Edinburgh Castle esplanade and lead you down the Royal Mile, in and out of close where you will explore and discover Edinburgh’s history, maybe a secret garden, possibly a ghost or two, and of course the end of the world.
