About this Event

An entertaining way to get to know the history and heritage of the VQ, the scavenger hunt is a fun, team-based event run live through WhatsApp, taking participants on a clue-solving adventure of discovery around The VQ.

How it Works:

  • The group is split into teams (usually 3–4 people per team).
  • Each team receives a unique set of clues so they’re not just following each other around the same route.
  • The scavenger hunt is fully managed in real time on WhatsApp. Each team is added to their own WhatsApp group, where they receive their clues.
  • A few shared clues are included to keep energy up and add a bit of friendly competition.
  • The clues lead teams to a mix of well-known landmarks, hidden corners, and quirky points of interest in The VQ.
  • There are some task-based clues, such as speaking Irish or visiting a specific shop or bar.
  • Local knowledge helps, but the use of Google and Google Maps is allowed.
  • Fastest team wins!

Practical Info:

  • Duration: approx. 90 minutes to 2 hours
  • Starting Point: Harley’s St., The VQ, Cork
  • End Point: The final clue will take you there!
  • Group size: Minimum 12 people (max 30 places)

*Participants will be organised into teams for the Scavenger Hunt. If you are a registering as a group, you can request to be on the same team by emailing [email protected].


The VQ Heritage Day Scavenger Hunt is organised in partnership with Beyond The Glass Adventure Tours.
