Back to the past
Your expedition is off to a flying start! As soon as you arrive, your guide greets you with a big smile and a mysterious secret...
Listen up: while rummaging through the archives, he stumbled upon a discovery that shook up the entire VéloRail team. In the storeroom, behind a dusty old shelf, he found a mysterious folder that had been forgotten for years. But what's it hiding?
Moving but true, inside was hidden a sentimental treasure straight from the 70s. Love letters exchanged between Lucien and Léontine, two lovers who whispered sweet nothings to each other... and spoke of an enigmatic hidden chest.
©ACAP – Rafca MKHAIBERSpoiler alert: the treasure is supposedly buried somewhere near the railway, but no one has found it yet. And that's where you come in. Your mission? Put on your detective hat and dive into this thrilling investigation! Thanks to the clues left by our two lovebirds, you'll follow in the footsteps of the past, along the tracks and through the puzzles.
Cyclodrai-what?
Cy-clo-drai-sine: a curious contraption that you're invited to climb aboard. Halfway between a bicycle and a ghost train, the VéloRail takes you along an old railway line.
The added bonus? There's no station master or engine here; you pedal to get going. Perfect for working off that chocolate-and-whipped cream waffle from your afternoon snack (or just to feel good about yourself).
Everyone in their positions! To advance in this adventure, you'll need a crack team: four feet firmly planted on the pedals and plenty of flair for deciphering the love letters left by Lucien and Léontine. We'll divide up the roles for the outward journey and switch roles for the return journey.
As you approach the viaduct, keep your eyes peeled: a breathtaking view of the medieval city of Chauvigny awaits you. A quick photo break, yes, but don't forget your mission!
Once you've got all the clues, all you have to do is put the puzzle pieces together to locate the lost chest. All we can say is, we found it! Have you?
