Our York treasure hunts - Printed and Download versions - what are they all about?

You are told where to start your treasure hunt, given simple directions to follow and a map of the area. In between directions you have things to hunt for by simply looking around on buildings, plaques, signs and statues etc. You will also be set some extra scavenger tasks to complete. These are optional and include collecting things, photo opportunities and other fun activities! The aim of the hunt is to gain as many points as possible by answering the clues correctly and completing the extra tasks.

When you have completed your treasure hunt get back together maybe at a bar or restaurant to mark the answers 'pub quiz style' and if you visit the members area on our website you can personalise and print your very own huntfun certificates. (There is no actual treasure at the end by the way sorry!) The winning team is the one with the most points!

Wheelchair access...

Most of the route is passable but there are some steps in the grounds of the Merchant Adventurers Hall which would require a short diversion which would result in the loss of a couple of clues.

When you buy one of our GPS treasure hunt packs this is what you get...

A link containing everything you need to run your GPS treasure hunt. We include full instructions so the organiser can personalise and set up the hunt ready for use. You will receive links to print out handouts needed too. (Please note, we recommend no fewer than 3 and no more than 5 in a team)

Our treasure hunts - GPS versions - what are they all about?

Organisers can set a start and finish point and the time the teams have to complete the hunt in. It is then up to each team to navigate their way to the 'huntfun hotspots' where challenges including clues to answer and tasks and activities to be completed can be accessed. Teams will be awarded points for correctly completing the challenges set. Scores are calculated real time so you are able to see how you and the other teams are doing throughout the hunt. The aim of the hunt is to gain as many points as possible in the allocated time. You will earn bonus points for getting to the finish early and penalty will be deducted if you are late! Strategy and team work is needed to plan your route carefully to ensure you get as many points as possible and if you access a 'hint' only half the points available will be awarded!
