Waterford Explorer Scavenger Hunt

Join the Waterford Explorer scavenger hunt and explore the village with your family! Pick up a passport at a ticket gate, the Information Booth, or the Craft School Tent, then follow the map to find all six stops. Collect a stamp at each one, in any order you like.

Once you have all six stamps, bring your passport to the Information Booth to claim your Waterford Explorer badge!
