The Rainometer Hack - Save Roundhay Park!
Roundhay Park's rainometer has gone haywire, causing unexpected downpours and soaking park goers. Local tech geek Grumpy Graham has hacked into the rainometer, setting it to 'make it rain' instead of 'measure rain'. Now, he's left a trail of clues that will lead to the de-activation code for his hack. Spy HQ is seeking skilled agents to solve the clues and save the park from Graham's mischief!

Please Note:
This Trail cannot be fully completed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year's Day. This is because the Specialist Gardens at the start and finish of this Trail are closed on these days.Route Info:
The route includes a series of steps and sections across grass, up a steepish grassy hill and along some woodland paths so is not suitable for wheelchair users or most pushchairs.
All-terrain pushchair users willing to negotiate grassy slopes would manage with some slight detours to use alternative paths.
Roundhay Park is a great place for dogs to let off steam! They'll need to be on a lead in the specialist gardens though.
Parking is free in the car parks at Roundhay Park and there is plenty of free on-street parking if these are full.
There are public toilets in the Tropical World cafe near the start, at the Lakeside Cafe halfway round and in Mansion House towards the end of the Trail. These are marked on the park maps and are all subject to the opening hours of these locations.
There are plentiful scenic picnic opportunities - pack a rug and pick your spot! If you prefer, there are cafes near the start, middle and end of the Trail, as well as a pub near the start / finish point.
