Who Culled Clara In Castleblaney?

Clara O’Neill has been found murdered in Castleblaney and we need your help to confirm suspicions about the case. Although Clara’s body was found at the lakeside, we believe this was not where the murder was committed. Only by following the clue trail will you uncover the details behind the crime.

This Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, walking murder mystery trail.
On the clue route there is much to discover around the town. You’ll learn about its origination, history, and former railway line, see historic buildings, learn about an Olympic sportsman and his many achievements (with a link to Manchester United), and discover the rich musical roots of the town. You’ll end up at the shore of beautiful Lake Muckno, where there are splendid opportunities for walks afterwards for those with some energy left!
The route is approximately 2½ miles, or almost 4 km, and starts/ends at the Castle Hope car park.
This Whodunit Hunt booklet has nearly 30 clues to solve and is jam-packed with extra historical and local information.
The recommended time for this murder mystery is about 2 ½ hours, excluding any stops for refreshment.
Accessibility – a few streets and paths have moderate inclines but you shouldn’t need to navigate any steps.
Refreshments – there are restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and stores along your clue hunt. We love the West Street coffee shop which you’ll pass on the main street.

Who Murdered Mark From Markethill?

Mark Maloney from Markethill has been murdered and detectives need your help to solve the mystery around his death. Although his body was found dumped outside the entrance to Gosford Park, it is believed the murder was not committed here and he may well have been murdered outside the village.

The Tassagh Trail Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, driving murder mystery trail. It starts at the outskirts of Markethill near Gosford Forest Park and ends at the fairy village in Darkley Forest, passing various places in the Tassagh area along the way.
Discover numerous historical places as well as lovely natural spots. En route, learn about the history of Markethill, Keady and the Tassagh area that was influenced by the milling industry. See the second oldest graveyard in the whole of Ireland, an impressive railway viaduct, a number of lakes, visit three forest parks (all for free) with a charming fairy village in one of them… and more!
The clue route is 36 miles, or about 58 km. There is generally moderate walking, about 2 miles / 3 km in total… unless you wish to do extra walks at any of the forest areas.
It is recommended to allow four hours to solve this murder mystery, excluding refreshment stops. You can also do a forest walk midway, if you wish and time allows.
Accessibility – the terrain is generally fairly flat. Some clues require reasonable mobility, with a couple having steps to climb.
There are various refreshment options, mostly in Markethill, Keady, and Castleblaney.
