Glow Trail

Glow Trail is an innovative mobile application designed to enhance outdoor adventures at Forestry England centres by providing a captivating augmented reality (AR) experience. It is perfect for families and fans of outdoor exploration, as it partners with Forestry England's physical trails to deliver an interactive and engaging journey.

Players set out on the Farmageddon-themed journey joined by the beloved characters Shaun the Sheep and his extraterrestrial acquaintance, Lu-La. The aim is to assist Lu-La in charging her communicator through a series of clues and puzzles found along the trail. Your mission involves solving eight interactive puzzles and conquering eight physical challenges, each offering a chance to improve your previous best score.

The experience is heightened when you use the special activity pack torch to reveal hidden clues. By successfully charging the communicator, you help send a beacon to Lu-La's spaceship, enabling her safe return home. This AR technology brings Shaun and Lu-La to life, allowing players to take memorable photos with them against the scenic forest backdrop.

In addition to the thrill of the trail challenges, this app boasts immersive audio effects and music extracted directly from the 'Shaun the Sheep: Farmageddon' movie, enriching the overall experience with cinematic quality.

Participants are also encouraged to subscribe to Forestry England's newsletters, which includes them in a draw with the chance to win a £500 Forest Holiday. The intertwining of outdoor physical activity, digital puzzles, and AR entertainment makes this a standout game for those seeking to add a tech twist to their nature walks. It's an interactive way to experience the great outdoors, engage both body and mind, and find oneself in a story guided by a charming cast of characters.
