Can you complete Geographical’s Giant Boxing Day Crossword puzzle?
Welcome to Geographical’s Giant Boxing Day Crossword! The bumper crossword has 401 geographical clues for you to solve – everything from capital cities to obscure islands to test your knowledge of the world, thanks to Clocktower Crosswords.
It’s far too big to fit onto a small web page and definitely not doable on a smartphone, but we’ve done our best to make it as accessible as possible. You can open the link below for the online version – there will be a lot of scrolling and you’ll have to do a fair bit of screen-shooting, cutting and pasting to join it all together for submission, but crosswords are supposed to be a challenge, right!?
(If you find it’s taking a bit of extra time, you can hit the save button in the top left corner and come back to it later – but make sure your browser isn’t set to clear cookies on exit, or you may lose all your work!)
