You step into Campus Martius Park as the city hums around you — streetcars clack, the river glints, and a remote host pings your phone with the first clue. The Detroit Dash is equal parts city tour and game: a two-hour, GPS-driven scavenger hunt that sends teams across downtown and nearby neighborhoods to solve puzzles, complete photo challenges, and interact with locals.

History
Detroit rose as an industrial and cultural hub in the early 20th century—its factories, Motown music scene, and Art Deco architecture shape many checkpoints on the route.
Conservation
Respect private property and local businesses during challenges; the city has active riverfront and park restoration projects, so keep litter out of public spaces.
