Where does it go?
That is the game. A hunt tells you nothing but the first riddle; the place it points at is what you work out, and printing the list here would be printing the answers. What we will say is the shape of it: 2 riddles, 900 m, about 30 min, and every stop is somewhere you can reach and see without paying an admission.
