Who Murdered Mark From Markethill?

Mark Maloney from Markethill has been murdered and detectives need your help to solve the mystery around his death. Although his body was found dumped outside the entrance to Gosford Park, it is believed the murder was not committed here and he may well have been murdered outside the village.
  • The Tassagh Trail Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, driving murder mystery trail. It starts at the outskirts of Markethill near Gosford Forest Park and ends at the fairy village in Darkley Forest, passing various places in the Tassagh area along the way.
  • Discover numerous historical places as well as lovely natural spots. En route, learn about the history of Markethill, Keady and the Tassagh area that was influenced by the milling industry. See the second oldest graveyard in the whole of Ireland, an impressive railway viaduct, a number of lakes, visit three forest parks (all for free) with a charming fairy village in one of them… and more!
  • The clue route is 36 miles, or about 58 km. There is generally moderate walking, about 2 miles / 3 km in total… unless you wish to do extra walks at any of the forest areas.
  • It is recommended to allow four hours to solve this murder mystery, excluding refreshment stops. You can also do a forest walk midway, if you wish and time allows.
