About this Event

Get to know New York's Central Park at your own pace on this interactive scavenger hunt walking tour played on your phone. Decipher riddles, interact with the most important attractions of the city, and unlock interesting facts and legends.

An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

Once you're in Central Park, download the app and use the maps integration (an internet connection is required) to reach the attractions.

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation, and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the city sightseeing game.

Once you put in the correct code, the app will reveal the next destination and riddle to you. The puzzles are independent and not connected to each other through a story, so interact with the attractions and their exteriors to work out the answers.

Take the opportunity to snap some photos as you walk between locations, and pause the game whenever you want. Have a coffee, visit a museum, go for lunch, or even wait until another day — the game will be waiting for you.

Start your tour from the Obelisk, which has been around for at least 3000 years! Visit the Vista Rock that will leave you speechless with the wonderful view it offers you, even the Delacorte Theater with its amazing acoustics will dominate your tour. Take a photo at the fairytale Swedish Cottage, which is sure to leave you speechless, and get lost in Strawberry Fields, this special monument. Visit the spot that is a skater's paradise. You will also pass by the Statue of Balto, a spot that everyone loves because of its unique history. Admire the imposing Bethesda Terrace. See, walk,relax and admire the large bronze statue, Alice in Wonderland, from our favorite fairy tale in an ideal landscape.

There is no time limit for this activity. You can complete it at your own pace.

The puzzles are related to the outdoor areas of the attractions, you do not need to enter or pay a ticket. Entrance is purely your choice.

Start whenever you want between 7 AM up to 6 PM.
