New ‘Imp Catcher’s Quest’ Trail Launches from The Lincoln Imporium – A Whimsical Way to Explore Lincoln’s Historic Cathedral Quarter

The Lincoln Imporium, the quirky independent shop nestled in the heart of Lincoln’s Cathedral Quarter, has launched a brand-new immersive trail for summer visitors: The Imp Catcher’s Quest. Designed for curious explorers of all ages, the trail offers a playful and magical journey through one of the city’s most enchanting areas.

Part treasure hunt, part local tour, The Imp Catcher’s Quest begins at The Lincoln Imporium and leads participants through the cobbled streets and historic sights of the Cathedral Quarter, with plenty of surprises along the way.

“At The Lincoln Imporium, we see ourselves as guides,” says Thomas Atkins, Imp Keeper at the Imporium. “Many of our visitors ask for recommendations on what to see and do. Whether you’re exploring solo, with friends and family, or even on a first date, our Imp Catcher’s Quest is the perfect way to discover the charm of the Cathedral Quarter — and even catch a little imp along the way.”

The trail is suitable for all ages and takes approximately 45-60 minutes to complete. Each participant receives an official trail sheet from the shop to help guide them on their journey. As they follow the clues, they’ll uncover fascinating local history, meet colourful characters, and maybe even catch a glimpse of a mischievous imp or two. Join the trail for £13, and you’ll also receive a Little Imp as part of the experience.

“Summers in Lincoln are a wonderful time for families to slow down, explore, and enjoy everything the city has to offer — from its historic streets and stunning architecture to the welcoming local shops and hidden gems waiting to be discovered,” adds Atkins.

With the trail now live and running throughout the summer, The Lincoln Imporium hopes to inspire both locals and tourists to engage with the city in a creative and light-hearted way.
