The Treasure Trails World Records
Following Treasure Trails entering the Guinness World Records book, we decided to create our own Treasure Trails records for our interpid Trailers!
Check out all the amazing records below!
Most Musical Trail Completed
Achieved by Sue Mather in September 2024: "We recently did the Ripon one and were treated to a concert on the bandstand in the park part way round!"
Fastest Trail Completed
Achieved by Simone Heslam in June 2024: "We caught a ferry to Bowness which arrived at 1315hrs. We did a Treasure Trail... running between clues (like Anneka Rice but without the helicopter). We completed it at 1410hrs and had time for a cream tea and a shop browse before the returning ferry departed at 1500hrs." - Phew!
Earliest Ice Cream
Enjoyed by Allen Tsui while following the Bognor Regis Trail at 9:59am on Saturday 20th August 2022, beating his previous record of 10:15am in Chester on Thursday 2nd June 2022.
Longest time to complete a Trail
Began in May 2020 but couldn't access the gardens due to covid restrictions. Didn't return till April 2022 to try to finish the missing clues and the gardens were closed for a private event. Returned again and managed to complete it while dodging the rain. 2 years and 2 days from start to finish! From Sarah O'Connor - Wollaton Hall and Deer Park Trail
