Discover The Underbelly Of Illinois’ Most Popular City With The Chicago Pedway Scavenger Hunt

The Chicago Pedway is a system of underground tunnels and passageways beneath the Windy City that connect shops, train stations, hotels, museums, and many other attractions. It is ideal for avoiding weather and getting to know Chicago's underground.

This spring, our friends at Atlas Obscura will be hosting a scavenger hunt throughout those tunnels, and you won't want to miss it. Scroll on for more details.

Guests can book this special event either March 28, 2020, or April 18, 2020, for an attraction that will take place between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Drinks will be provided along this excursion and bookings can be made through Airbnb. The cost per person is $45 and groups of at least two are recommended.

In an Amazing Race-style game, you'll compete with others to answer questions and find the host of the scavenger hunt at the end.

By the time you've reached your final destination, you'll have scoured the entire Chicago Pedway system and will be an expert in how to navigate it.

You'll uncover restaurants, shortcuts, history, and so much more when you sign up for this wonderful game that is exciting for young and old alike.

Teams are encouraged to use their smartphones to help guide them and answer questions. An ID, pen or pencil and good waking shoes will also be useful.

The team who completes the questions and makes their way through the tunnels quickest will win a prize. No matter what, it will be a fun time for all.

Get tickets for this event through the Atlas Obscura website or Airbnb. Are you looking forward to this scavenger hunt? If so, we'd love to hear from you. Please share your experiences and photos with us below in the comments.
