Porthkerry Country Park has so much to see and do, and this app will allow you to bring parts of the park to life as you get out and explore.
With augmented reality (AR) you can meet Henry Ringham, whose company was brought in to repair the viaduct after it started to collapse, and Ann Jenkin, the witch of Cliff Wood Cottage. Find out about the potions she made and the spells she may have cast. You can see Cwm Ciddy sawmill appear on top of its foundations and see how it was worked from the twin leated pond above it. At the bottom of Cliff Wood the app will allow you to see the medieval sawmill, whose ruins are only just visible today.
The app has GPS triggered collectable trails which will allow you to explore the park, collecting virtual plants and animals along the way while you look out for the real ones. You can collect myths and legends from around the park with the story trail and there’s a kids’ collectable trail around the meadow area too enabling them to collect facts about different animals while they run around.
Once you’ve collected your AR characters, stories, fauna, flora, they will be saved into your collections library to read about whenever you like.

You will need:

• A GPS enabled mobile device.
GPS is required to show your progress and allow you to unlock the zones, however if your device is not GPS enabled you will be able to access the collectables by clicking on the map.
• A fully charged battery
• Headphones (optional)

How to use the App:

• Launch the app and choose which trail you’d like to follow. The map will show you where you are and where you can find each of the collectables.
• Click ‘Start Trail’ and start exploring, the map will show you your progress.
• You can put your mobile device to sleep as you walk to conserve your battery.
• When you enter a ‘zone’ you will be notified to click on it and unlock it.
• Once you’ve collected your AR character, model, animal, plant or story it will be stored in your collections library for you to look at again any time you like.
