Aberystwyth - The Case of the Missing Books
Aberystwyth is known for its beautiful promenade, bustling town, and the prestigious National Library of Wales. But recently, a gang of thieves has been causing chaos and stealing rare and valuable books. The local informant, Dusty Covers, has tipped off Detective Chief Inspector Libby Rary that the gang has arrived in town. With the National Library at risk, DCI Rary has come up with a clever plan to catch the thieves before they strike.
Follow the Clues and Catch the Book Thieves
Detective Chief Inspector Libby Rary has codenamed this detective mystery 'Operation Paperback' and has called upon YOU, her top detectives, to help solve the case. Your mission is to follow the clues scattered throughout Aberystwyth, identify the gang leader, and discover any evidence linking them to a previous crime scene before they can pull off their next heist.
As you explore the town and promenade, keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden in plain sight. With your detective skills and keen eye, you'll be able to uncover the truth and help DCI Rary make an arrest.
So put on your detective hat and get ready for an exciting adventure through Aberystwyth!

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Aberystwyth, there are a few things you need to know...
The route is not friendly for wheelchair users, but those with pushchairs should find it manageable. There are a few steps to navigate near the war memorial but they should be navigable if you have someone to help carry them down!
Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that it is a busy town centre, so dogs will need to be kept on leads.
The closest long-stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at North Road Clinic on Queen’s Avenue (SY23 2EG), just a five-minute walk away.
There are some fantastic events in Aberystwyth’s calendar, all of which are fantastic times to visit this beautiful town. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. We recommend checking for events before you set off on your investigation.
There are public toilets available towards the beginning and Clue 12. The route passes refreshment stops between Clues 03-09 and picnic spots between Clues 12-13.
