A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Box

For years, the town of Box has been buzzing with excitement over the eccentric explorer, Shuvlyn Pick. Armed with his amateurish caving gear, he would disappear into the darkness of Box Tunnel, always returning with a newfound "treasure". But on the day of his latest adventure, Shuvlyn was found slumped at the tunnel entrance, his coded notes hinting at something more secretive than a simple treasure hunt. As the top detectives in town, it's up to YOU to crack the clues and reveal the truth behind his disappearance.

Detective Mystery Through Box

Grab your family and friends for an immersive and exciting self-guided detective mystery themed Treasure Trail through the picturesque town of Box. As you follow the Trail route, keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. Can YOU eliminate the suspects and discover what really happened to Shuvlyn Pick?

This circular Trail starts by the waterside before taking you on a climb up High Street to see the dramatic western portal of Box Railway Tunnel. Along the way, you'll uncover interesting snippets about the village's associations with engineering, literature, and exploration.

Attention all detectives! The mystery awaits… Good luck on your adventure!
