Cavan Lakeland Trail

Who Bumped Off Ben From Bawnboy?

Ben McKeown from Bawnboy has been found murdered and our best investigators are struggling to conclude the case and thus need your help to solve the murder. Although his body was found in the Ballinamore Canal, it’s obvious to detectives that he was murdered elsewhere.

JUST LAUNCHED – 2nd October!

  • The linear Cavan Lakeland Whodunit Hunt trail starts in outer Cavan and ends in Bawnboy.
  • Enjoy beautiful lakeland scenery while visiting some fantastic historic sites! See an impressive castle and Drumlane abbey, an old folly with a beautiful paranomic view, a ruined church, and solve clues at and around the canal at Ballyconnell. You’ll also visit several historic places in and around Bawnboy including the neolithic Creggin stone, the grim Workhouse with its eye-opening history… and more!
  • 28 clues to solve plus super sleuth clues to spot!
  • The route is 66 km / 42 miles, while the total walking distance across all of the clues is 4½ km / 2¾ miles which includes a there-and-back walk of 1¼ km to Flemings Folly for one clue.
  • The recommended time for this murder mystery, excluding refreshment stops and return journey, is 4-5 hours.
  • Accessibility – it is generally flat where the clues are to be found apart from the Flemings Folly walk that has moderate inclines; there are no steps that must be navigated.
