A trail of clues awaits in

Northern Chase

Chaos has erupted in Cannock Chase as a sneaky kestrel has been causing trouble by stealing shiny items from local residents and visitors. But while they squabble amongst themselves, the rogue feathered friend is making off with their treasures and trinkets! Lucky for us, local birdwatcher Burt Spotter has been keeping track of the kestrel's movements and has created a map with all the spots it's been spotted. But there's a catch - Burt has hidden the map locations within a series of riddles! We need the help of our top treasure hunters to solve this puzzle and retrieve the stolen loot!

Please Note:

We are currently unaware of any restrictions for dogs on this Trail, and whilst most of our Trails can be enjoyed with dogs, those in towns and cities may be less suitable due to traffic and a lack of open spaces. You may also encounter restricted access to parks etc.

Mini Explorer Club

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.
