You step off Main Street and the city rearranges itself into clues: brick facades nudge at your curiosity, the Lehigh River murmurs directions, and a row of painted alleys dares you to look closer. The app drops a riddle, your team splits, and downtown Bethlehem becomes a playground of photo challenges, local lore, and timed puzzles.

History
Founded by Moravian settlers in 1741, Bethlehem later became a steel-production center whose factories reshaped the economy and built the SteelStacks cultural district.
Conservation
Stay on public sidewalks and respect private property; compact urban events like this reduce impact but follow leave-no-trace principles and pack out any trash.

Charge your phone
This experience runs through an app — bring a full battery plus a portable charger to avoid interruptions.
Wear supportive shoes
Expect 1–3 miles on pavement, some cobbles and steps — comfortable walking shoes make the difference.

Use the remote guide
If you get stuck or a clue is ambiguous, the in-app chat puts you in touch with a guide rather than wandering off-course.
