CRYPTIC CLUE ORIENTEERING

The Concept

Groot Constantia swimming pool
This concept sees the group split into smaller teams. These teams will need to navigate to various locations on the property using cryptic clues and maps. Once at these locations teams will need to complete a task in order to collect their next clue or earn points.   Tasks may include anything from finding a specific artefact in the original homestead to a blind wine tasting. Teams will be scored on who collects the most points and correctly follows the cryptic clues to the finish in the shortest time.
