Ancient East Churches Trail

Who Killed Kevin From Kingscourt?

Kevin King from Kingscourt has been found murdered and our chief investigator needs your help to solve the crime. Although his body was found at Bailieborough square, we think he may have been murdered elsewhere. So the trail for clues starts at Kingscourt, where he lived.
  • This Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, driving murder mystery trail. It starts at Kingscourt and ends at the unique tin church of Laragh.
  • The Ancient East Churches trail visits a variety of historic spots in Counties Cavan and Monaghan. See beautiful churches, enjoy a lovely forest walk, explore the main street of Ballybay, learn about historic Bailieborough town and an ancient fair, see beautiful lakes, an unusual statue of an elk… and more!
  • We’ve squeezed nearly 30 clues into this trail with lots of historical information added to the Whodunit booklet so that you get to know just a little more about the places you’re visiting.
  • The route is 78 km (almost 49 miles).
  • The total walking distance spread across all of the clue stops is 5 ¾ km / 3 ½ miles. This includes a lovely woodland walk of 2 ½ km / 1 ½ miles at Bailieborough Demesne – if you wanted to use up two of your clue helps instead of walking this distance you could do this if you wished… though in the spring the bluebells are beautiful here.
  • We suggest allowing 4-5 hours to complete this Whodunit Hunt, excluding extended refreshment stops…. so it’s great for a wee day out.
  • Accessibility – once out of the car the terrain is fairly flat, with mostly moderate slopes. Reasonable mobility is required to do the forest walk. Alternative routes can be found around steps.

Taster Trails

Short On Time? Try A Taster Trail!

Ever thought of trying a Whodunit Hunt but always short on time or weren’t sure how much you’d enjoy it? Or wondered if you’d be ‘good enough’ to solve a case (which really doesn’t matter)? Then try one of our new taster trails! We’ve specifically designed them to take around 90 minutes to complete with walking routes of less than a mile. We’ll give you help with two clues if you get stuck.

There’s still 17-18 clues to solve (rather less than the 30+ clues in our standard length trails in these cities) and you’ll get to see interesting places, learn about historic sites and people encountered along the routes, and discover something new!

We’ve just launched our first driving taster trail too, the Torr Road Taster Trail which starts at the quaint village of Cushendun.

So try one of these taster trails and see if you’d like more of our kind of fun… definitely something different to do, for sure! They are at a bargain price of only £3.99!!
