Uncovering Drake's Hidden Hoard - A Seaside Adventure
Whilst enjoying a day out in the quaint seaside town of Aldeburgh, one of our volunteers, Leeta Pickup, stumbled upon a mysterious treasure map. Rumoured to have originated from the legendary Golden Hind, Sir Francis Drake's famous galleon, this map reveals the location of his vast treasures. Now, the map has made its way to the Intrepid Explorers Society (IES), and we need your help to decipher its clues and unearth the hidden hoard!

We have three super duper themed Clubs for your child to enjoy as part of their Treasure Trail experience.
Perfect for 4-8 year olds, the concept behind the Clubs is that your child will get a bundle of goodies to excite
them about their forthcoming Trail experience, something to keep them entertained whilst travelling to and from
the Trail, and something to be given on completion of the Trail as a keepsake.

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Aldeburgh, there are a few things you need to know...
The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.
Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that you may need to keep your dogs on leads or off beaches according to local bylaws – we recommend double-checking these as they can change.
The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Fort Green (IP15 5DE), just a one-minute walk away.
There are some fantastic events in Aldeburgh’s calendar, all of which are great 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. Please check for events before setting off.
There are public toilets available towards the beginning and middle of the Trail, and the route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way.
