Schleswig-Holstein's megalithic tombs come in clusters.

In the Sachsenwald, Alter Hau 3 and Großsteingrab Sachsenwald Alter Hau 1 are 5 km from Reinbek, and the Poppostein is 11 km from Schleswig.
RLQuest knows 212 named megalithic tombs in the state, and 135 of them have a Wikipedia article; the 38 castles, 65 lighthouses and 84 windmills are all shorter lists. Many are a field's walk from the road, which suits a short daily quest; RLQuest checks the walk and adds the ground you crossed to your map.

RLQuest knows these places too. Which means:
Some of your daily quests lead to a real place near you. The app uses your location to check you were really there.
If you're the first person in RLQuest to complete a quest at a place, it's your first find. The Place Book shows you which kinds of place you're still missing.
Every walk uncovers tiles, each about 350 m across. Over time you can see which corners you know well, and where you've never set foot.
