We've got a mission for you in

New Galloway & Dalry

Deep in the heart of the Glenkens villages, a sinister plot is unfolding. The notorious Professor Ivor Grudge, driven by jealousy and greed, has hatched a devious plan to destroy the strong community links between the villages. With a device planted beneath Ken Bridge, the Professor aims to turn the bridge into a crumbly cheese, causing it to disintegrate into the river and isolating the villages from one another.

But not all hope is lost. A group of brave villagers have stumbled upon a series of clues written in the Professor's handwriting (though mostly illegible and scribbled in crayon). Could these clues hold the key to deactivating the device and saving the villages? That's where YOU come in. As elite agents of Spy HQ, it's up to you to keep the local links strong and stop the Professor's evil plan!

Spy Mission Through New Galloway and Dalry

Bring your family and friends on an action-packed spy mission through the picturesque towns of New Galloway and Dalry. As you follow the trail, keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. Can you solve the clues and complete the mission like a true secret agent?

This is a 2-part trail, with clues to solve in both New Galloway and St John's Town of Dalry. In New Galloway, explore past the Town Hall, head over to the War Memorial, and take a stroll through the park. At Dalry, begin your adventure at the Burning Bush Sculpture before exploring the charming village.

Are you ready to take on the challenge and save the villages from the evil Professor's grasp?
