Tree Trunk Brook

Tree Trunk Brook is a short, replayable adventure about hiking during the pandemic. You explore three trails by following trail blazes, taking photos, making friends and finding lost items. The visitor center is closed, but the trails are open; social distancing is in effect and masks are required.

Explore the trails

There are 14 photo locations and 10 lost items to find. You can take nothing from the trails except litter on the ground. The environments are assembled from photographs as a collage, and the trails draw inspiration from hikes in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. They are meant to feel realistic, idyllic and familiar, like a nostalgic memory.

Meet the hikers

You can befriend 11 hikers by listening to them or returning their lost items. Seeing friendly strangers repeatedly helps you get to know them better. You can also stay in touch with your best friend, who can no longer come hiking with you.
