300 years ago, the infamous pirate Captain Sal T. Seadog sailed into the coastal town of Hythe, his ship laden with stolen treasures. After a night of celebration, he buried his loot in a secret location. But in a drunken haze, he lost his map, leaving the treasure hidden for centuries. Now, it's up to you, our top adventurers, to follow the clues and uncover the location of the Salty Seadog's Stash!

Mini Explorer Club
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.
