The Great Cornish Pasty Mystery - Can YOU Save the Pasties?

The iconic Cornish pasty is under threat! A group of extremists, known as the Anti-Pasty Extremists (APEX), have declared war on the beloved pastry, planning to wipe it out completely. Their leader, a pasty-detesting, shadowy individual, is determined to rid the county of this delicious treat. And they're starting with the Giant Pasty Ceremony at the annual Fowey Regatta. It's up to YOU to stop them!

Treasure Hunt Through Fowey

Join the fight to save the Cornish pasty by embarking on this exciting self-guided Treasure Hunt through the charming town of Fowey. Starting at the Parish Church on South Street, your case will take you on a journey through the town's ancient streets, past the unspoiled Fowey Harbour, and into the beautiful Old Grammar School Gardens. Can YOU follow the clues, eliminate suspects, and save the pasties?

Keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. With the pressure on to solve the mystery, can YOU round up the members of APEX and uncover the item they used?

The pasties are counting on YOU… Will you accept the challenge and save them from extinction?

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

Please Note:

This Trail is marked as NOT pushchair friendly, as there are several steep hills and some flights of steps encountered along the route. Lighter pushchair users should still be able to access these though.

Unfortunately, sniffer dogs are not allowed in the Old Grammar School Garden where Clue 19 is hidden.
