Season One- Game of Gnomes
🏆✨Celebrating the 2026 Game of Gnomes Awards✨🏆
🍄 Celebrating the explorers, the adventures, and the little gnomes who made it all possible! ✨
🥾📸 A Gnome-tastic Season to Remember
What an amazing season it's been!
Throughout 2026, explorers of all ages laced up their hiking shoes, followed winding trails, and discovered hidden gnomes along the way. Families shared adventures, friends compared finds, and countless memories were made in the forests, parks, and trails that became home to the Game of Gnomes community.
To celebrate the explorers whose determination, curiosity, and sense of adventure helped make this season extra special, we're excited to present the very first annual Game of Gnomes Awards!
These custom awards honor some of the season's top achievements and mark the beginning of a new tradition that we hope will continue for many years to come.
