In this Troodos Forest hunt, teams will start at the Troodos Geopark Visitor Center, where they’ll receive a map of the journey. Guided by the myth of Pefkomedon, teams will then explore through various checkpoints. Will be solving puzzles and gathering hidden symbols related to the forest’s natural and geological history. Furthermore, each location will introduce new challenges. Requiring participants to not only decipher codes but also learn about or help local wildlife to unlock the next stage. Moreover, the goal is to use the clues gathered along the way. Collect points as quickly as possible and uncover the hidden treasure.
