Witches, Wizards, and a Wicked Witch Hunt!

Something wicked is brewing in the quaint village of Burley. A mysterious witch (or warlock!) has been casting spells that put a damper on any fun in town. Laughter, smiles, and even smirks are now strictly forbidden, and anyone caught breaking the rules is at risk of a wicked curse. But the last spell cast by this fun-hating witch has gone too far, silencing a beloved member of the community. Now, it's up to YOU to enter the magical realm of Burley and help Chief Inspector Abby Kerdabra of the Bureau of Bad Magic to conjure up the culprit!

A Magical Detective Mystery Through Burley

Get ready for a thrilling adventure as you embark on this self-guided detective mystery through the enchanting village of Burley. As you explore the picturesque thatched cottages and Tudor inns, you'll uncover fascinating tales of witches, smugglers, and even a dragon! But beware, something wicked is lurking in the shadows, and it's up to YOU to solve the clues and crack the case.

Your journey begins with a spellbinding incantation. From there, you'll follow a series of clues hidden throughout the village, including in historic buildings, permanent features, and intriguing monuments. Keep your eyes peeled for any suspicious activity, as the wicked witch may be lurking nearby!

The fate of Burley is in your hands… Are YOU ready to solve the mystery and catch the culprit?

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

Before you set off on your awesome adventure, there are a few things you need to know...

The closest car park to the start of the Trail begins is the Burley Car Park (BH24 4AB), located behind the Queen's Head pub in Burley. Or, if you don't fancy the drive, why not try the New Forest Tour bus to make the most of the fantastically stunning surroundings?

This Trail route is friendly for wheelchair and pushchair users. However, there are many stretches of Trail with little or no pavement, so please take care.

Bring your four-legged friends along, but please note that they will need to be kept on a lead.

There are public toilets available at the start point and approximately halfway through the Trail, and the route passes several pubs, restaurants and a few cafes along the way.

Why not make a day of it and swap witches for pirates on our Burley Village Forest and Footpaths treasure hunt!
