About Quiz Trail:
What is a Quiz Trail?
What is a Quiz Trail?
A Quiz Trail is a self-guided walk taking you on a circular route - showing you the highlights. We started making our Quiz Trails from a love of history - each booklet is packed with local history. We are a Mum and two (grown up!) daughters and as a family we'd visit places - walk around the middle bit and go home not having learnt very much about the area. Our trails make sure you see and learn lots more during your visit!
Are they long?
Are they long?
We keep our trails under 2 miles and they take about 1 to 2 hours -got to leave time in the day for a drink and an ice cream! You can stop at any point during the trail - there's no time limit - you can do them entirely at your own pace in your own time.
Do I need one booklet per person?
Do I need one booklet per person?
Our Quiz Trails are made for sharing - one booklet is all that's needed for a small group. They have adult questions and an extra set of questions for juniors - you complete the answers as you go.
What ages are the Quiz Trails suitable for?
What ages are the Quiz Trails suitable for?
ALL ages! They are an activity old and young can do together. The junior questions are geared to about 5 to 12 year olds but we've had great feedback from teenagers having enjoyed the trails just as much as the younger ones. Perfect retirement activity too. All ages can enjoy doing a Quiz Trail - we hope you enjoy them.
Is it only for children and families?
Is it only for children and families?
Definitely NO! :) We aim to give an enjoyable time to solos, couples, groups of friends as well as families. From our feedback lots of older people are having a fun time answering the junior's questions as well as the adult questions. We must never lose the child within us! Plus some groups of friends have turned it into a chance to pop into the local pubs while doing the route!
Are the Quiz Trails wheelchair user / pushchair user friendly?
Are the Quiz Trails wheelchair user / pushchair user friendly?
We really do take obstacles and difficulties into account and where there are steps or difficult access we give alternative routes. However, we all know that not everywhere has 100% accessible areas and some places, by their historical nature, have difficulties - such as Rye has hills and cobblestones and Sandwich has very narrow pavements. We do our very best to overcome potential problems as much as possible. If you would like any further information on particular Quiz Trails, please don't hesitate to contact us.

The Children’s University™ (CU) is able to recognise and reward children for all the additional learning they participate in voluntarily outside normal school hours. Once registered through a school or direct through the local CU, children can earn Learning Credits in a variety of ways including participating in activities held at “Public Learning Destinations.” Children are provided with a Passport to Learning for them to collect Credits as evidence of their learning.
Once children achieve a fixed number of Learning Credits, they will have the opportunity to have their successes celebrated at a very special Graduation Ceremony at either Canterbury Christ Church University, The University of Greenwich (Medway Campus) or The University of Kent.
