Berkhamsted

A couple or weeks ago Rob arranged a wonderful date for us. He found out about a murder mystery trail that you could complete. The one we took part in was based around the little historical town of Berkhamsted. It was great to get some fresh air and explore somewhere new whilst completing the fun little task.

The trial began just round the corner from Berkhamsted Castle so we decided to have an explore.

Entry to the castle was free. There wasn't too much left of the castle but we climbed to the top and there were some great views over the town. There were lots of families around having picnics and playing in the grounds. It would be a great llass to return for another lazy afternoon. However we had other more pressing matters to attend to!

The trail had about 20 different clues that eliminated suspects and weapons that could have been used. Although the trail was aimed at children, the clues were not easy. I certainly claimed it was impossible a fair few times. Here are alme of the clues. 

There were some lovely sites as we went round. 

The walk took a couple of hours so we had some treats on the way round. This included sausage rolls, whippy ice creams and we also stopped for a beer at one of the pubs on the cabal when it started raining.

By the time the trail was finished we were knackered. We took our tired feet home, ordered an Indian take away and put our feet up on the sofa with Nelli.
