– We Are Weymouth launches augmented reality trail in Lodmoor Hill, just in time for Easter –
We Are Weymouth, Weymouth’s Business Improvement District is egg-cited to announce a cracking new family-friendly experience this spring! In partnership with High Street Safari, The Great Egg-scape is a FREE augmented reality (AR) story trail launching in Lodmoor Hill and along Dorchester Road, just in time for Easter.
This interactive trail invites families to join the Doggie Detectives on a mission to solve the mystery of the missing Easter Bunny’s friends. Hidden behind puzzling doors, each character must be rescued using clues, code-cracking, and a sprinkle of Easter magic. Using just a smartphone, families can see the characters come to life in augmented reality, snap selfies, make memories, and explore together in a fun, safe and engaging way.
Perfect for locals and visitors alike, this contactless experience encourages everyone to discover more of Weymouth’s unique areas. Whether you’re popping into the shops or out for a stroll, this trail brings a sense of adventure to your day. And with some local businesses offering special discounts to trail-goers, there’s even more reason to take part!
Dawn Rondeau-Irvine, Chief Operations Officer at We Are Weymouth says: “We’re always looking for new ways to connect the community with different parts of our town, and this Easter trail is a brilliant, tech-savvy way to do just that. It brings families together, supports local businesses, and adds a little magic to the everyday.”
The trail takes around 30 minutes to complete but can be done in more than one visit. There’s no need to download an app or register – just scan the QR codes with your phone and let the fun begin. Everyone who finishes the trail gets a free digital prize!
Running now and throughout spring, The Great Egg-scape is a must-do for families looking for free, memorable fun in Weymouth. To find out more and start your trail, visit: www.highstreetsafari.com/eggscape
