Halifax - 18 stops - par 51
This is a full 18-hole round through Halifax. The map is the real city and the ball rolls across its actual streets, using local attractions like the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site to form the holes. The walk covers 10.3 km and makes use of 2 portals to bridge the gaps. Skip is a local guide who knows every curb and crack in the pavement, though a stray crumb usually distracts the bird.
The course is drawn on the real street grid, so the map you play is the map you walk.
Drag to aim, release to swing. Buildings bounce and water costs you a stroke.
Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.
