The Hunt for the Legendary Magic Compass - A Pirate's Adventure!

Ahoy, mateys! Shiver me timbers, have ye heard the tale of the Magic Compass? It's said to be the ultimate treasure for any buccaneer of the seas - a compass that always points to the nearest treasure! Arrr, just imagine that! Many a pirate has searched for it, but none have been able to find it. But now, a new clue has been discovered, and it's up to YOU to follow it and claim the treasure before it falls into the wrong hands!

The story begins with a recent article in the Pirate Eye, tucked away on page 8. It tells of an old ship's log from a long-sunk pirate ship. But instead of recording a real voyage, the entries were clues to locations on a treasure map. And not just any treasure map - this one is said to lead to an island where the Magic Compass is buried!

Here at Explorer HQ, we've been tasked with finding the compass before it's too late. Are ye ready for a pirate's adventure?

Follow the Clues Through Alnwick - Village and Market Square

Set sail on a self-guided walking adventure through the quaint village of Alnwick and its bustling market square. As ye follow the trail, keep an eye out for sneaky clues hidden in historic buildings, permanent features, and intriguing monuments.

Ye'll start yer journey in the market square, where ye can stock up on supplies before setting off. But be warned - the trail won't be easy! The clues are cleverly hidden, and only the most daring treasure seekers will be able to follow them.

Arrr, the hunt is on… Are ye ready to claim the Magic Compass and become a true pirate legend?
