Info

Trek the City is an interactive walking scavenger hunt / trivia / adventure / challenge / race / game thingy!

It is also a fun and exciting way to explore the area at your own pace. Our scavenger hunts provide a unique mechanism to see a city from a new perspective with the guidance of our mobile web-based clues. Have a casual day with the kids, significant other, or compete with a group of friends or coworkers and you will find yourself racing from one clue to the next. Or you can meander too. Your choice.  One clue might have you inspecting the minute details of a sculpture, another may have you counting the number of columns on a building. Regardless, you will discover exciting parts of the city that you never knew existed. Rather than aimlessly wander to explore the city; a Trek with us might be just what you need to spice up your weekend!

Each Trek is a fun interactive way to explore a city.

It will guide you on a walking tour, while asking questions along the way.

It will test your observation skills, attention to reading and make you think.

We aim for about 2 miles for the Trek route. We make them a loop to get you back to your approximate starting point.

Have fun exploring with us (and learning some too) but not just blindly walk around. We point out restaurants, restrooms, and other fun things to check out later.

And after you’ve done a Trek, invite a friend to do it. And go with them. It’s really fun to watch friends and family try to find the answers, even if you already know it.

We are excited to have you join us on a Trek! — Go to the Home page or Locations page to begin!

Anyone who wants a reason to get outside, whether near home or especially when traveling to a new place and want to explore but not just blindly walk around. We point out restaurants, restrooms, other fun things to check out later.

Use it to get your 1000 Hours Outside or 10,000 steps!
