Paw Trail #73: 5x5 Path Puzzle (Easy)
easyDrag from 1 to 6 — fill every square
Trace a single trail that fills the 5x5 grid. The numbers show the order to visit, the thick walls block the way, and every square must be used once.
- Draw one path that moves up, down, left or right.
- Pass through every square exactly once.
- Visit the numbers in order, starting on 1 and ending on 6.
- You can’t cross a wall. Drag back (or tap an earlier square) to undo.
The route, square by square
Squares are written as R<row>C<column>, counting from the top-left.
R3C5 → R4C5 → R5C5 → R5C4 → R5C3 → R5C2 → R5C1 → R4C1 → R3C1 → R2C1 → R1C1 → R1C2 → R1C3 → R1C4 → R1C5 → R2C5 → R2C4 → R2C3 → R3C3 → R3C4 → R4C4 → R4C3 → R4C2 → R3C2 → R2C2
About this puzzle
This 5×5 grid has 6 numbers and 3 walls, and exactly one route fits all of them. The path starts at R3C5 and finishes at R2C2.
Squares with a single open neighbor must be the end of the path, so check whether that is the last number or something is wrong earlier on.
Every puzzle on this site has exactly one solution. If two routes both look possible, one of them will leave a square stranded later on.
