The Forgotten Safe - Can YOU Crack the Code?
Join the adventure and become a part of the story as you follow in the footsteps of eccentric maths genius, Al Jebra, on this thrilling self-guided walking Trail through the heart of Birmingham. Al has been a victim of theft for far too long, with rival mathematicians constantly stealing his work and claiming it as their own. In a bold move, Al has hidden his latest work in a safe, but he's forgotten the code! It's up to YOU and your team of conundrum crackers to retrace Al's steps, solve the clues, and crack the code before his rivals do.
Spy Mission Through Birmingham's City Squares and Statues
The countdown to your next mission has begun! Prepare for an exciting self-guided Spy Mission Trail that will take you on a top-secret route through Birmingham's civic and cultural heart, bursting with Victorian and 21st-century pride (and plenty of clues to crack!). Keep your eyes peeled for fascinating facts, curious hidden gems, and detection beams as you sneak around the city.
As you make your way through the city's squares and statues, you'll encounter sneaky puzzles set by Al himself. Only the sharpest minds will be able to solve them and retrieve the code to the safe before time runs out. Are YOU up for the challenge?
Join the mission and become a hero in the eyes of Al Jebra! Good luck, Agent!

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Birmingham, there are a few things you need to know...
The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.
Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that it is a busy city centre so dogs will need to be kept on leads.
The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Town Hall Multi-Storey (B5 4AF), just a three-minute walk away. Or why not try Birmingham’s variety of transport options, with New Street Railway Station, bus stops and tram stops all within a five-minute walk of the start point.
There are some fantastic events in Birmingham’s calendar, all of which are great times to visit this brilliant city. However, you may find that some of the Clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. If you would like further information about event dates, please contact the Tourist Information Centre at the Library of Birmingham.
There are public toilets available throughout the Trail, and the route passes several restaurants, cafes and shops along the way. Pause for a picnic beside the cathedral or in one of the squares.
