'This is a fun and (don't tell the children) educational activity as the trail took us all round Dartmouth and we learnt a lot about its fascinating history along the way.'

First clue to be released on the 1st June!

A group of the South’s most popular tourist attractions, including the iconic Spinnaker Tower and world-famous Beaulieu National Motor Museum have today announced the launch of a ground breaking new marketing initiative. The first Twitter Virtual Treasure Trail will take place the week commencing 31st May and aims to harness the power of social media phenomenon Twitter to encourage families and individuals to get out and start exploring Hampshire.

The diverse group of over 20 of Hampshire’s top attractions including the National Trust, Paultons Park, Marwell Wildlife and Winchester Cathedral have teamed up with national treasure hunt specialists Treasure Trails Ltd to create a free week long online treasure trail competition based around a series of clues that will be posted daily online via Twitter , Facebook and on the attractions website.

The clues provide hints to finding a code hidden on the Hampshire attractions website. These codes help competitors complete a competition grid that can be downloaded from (www.hampshireattractions.co.uk) or picked up at the individual attractions. When participants complete the grid and reveal the answer, they can then enter the prize competition online via the Treasure Trails website . Prizes include free family tickets to a choice of attractions. The game is fun and easy to play and will appeal to all ages, 5 – 85!

Twitter followers and facebook fans of the group of attractions will be encouraged to re-tweet or re-post clues to their own network encouraging support and participation. Twitter is the UK’s 10th most popular website. It is estimated that worldwide 50million tweets are sent per day. Twitter Trails will be held weekly throughout the summer season.

Bill Sainsbury, Chair of Hampshire Top Attractions commented: “From wildlife, roller coasters, action and adventure through to steam trains, classic cars, museums and heritage - Hampshire Top Attraction’s has them all. The Twitter Trail is designed to encourage visitors to our website. It is a guide to the best places to visit in Hampshire and the first place to visit for the latest news, information and money savings offers.”
