YOUR MISSION
During the annual River Cam cleanup weekend, some Cambridge volunteers found a treasure chest on the bottom of the river. However, the chest is locked with a secret code, which so far nobody has been able to crack. Luckily, after days of exhausting searching, a list containing some clues has been fished out of the water. Follow the route and find the clues to reveal the code. You might win a prize if you are lucky!
Cambridge Riverside Walk
This is a gem of a Trail, offering a tour to the past and present of the River Cam whilst enjoying a lovely scenic walk along the riverbanks. Come and soak up the beautiful river scenes, equally inviting and welcoming in all seasons!
This is a walking Spy Themed Trail. It is approximately 1.3 miles long and you should allow around 1.5 hours to complete it.
This Trail follows a well-maintained pedestrian route along the River Cam though the last part of the Trail (from the Chesterton Road recycling point to Jesus Green Bridge) is not fully accessible to pushchair and wheelchair users. Alternative route along Chesterton Road is possible but it might be difficult to access the last two clues (for example, the last clue is accessible via a set of steps that leads down to the river). For more details or to discuss the route please contact Anna on cambs@treasuretrails.co.uk.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
My nine-year-old daughter and I had a great day out in Cambridge with your trail as a guide. The great thing is (besides the fun in itself) that we could always take a break and were never rushed!
