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.

Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Looe (Logh), 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 though that the beach encountered on the Trail is not dog-friendly, and there are some narrow and busy streets included along the route, so we recommended keeping dogs on leads.

The town does occasionally flood during times of bad weather / storms and high spring tides, which may mean the route becomes impassable. Please check tide times before travelling. Your case will see you patrolling part of a busy working fishing harbour and along some stretches next to open, unfenced water and steep drops, so please monitor your whole squad carefully.

The closest long-stay pay and display car park is at the Trail start point, Millpool Car Park (PL13 2AF).

There are public toilets available at the beginning, middle, and end of the Trail. Some of these are pay to enter (bring some coins - or pay by card). The route passes several pubs, shops and cafes along the way, or why not opt for a picnic on the beach toward the middle of the Trail?

There are some fantastic events in Looe's calendar, all of which are great times to visit this beautiful town. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. We recommend checking for events before you set off on your investigation.

Looking for more things to do in Looe? Make a day of it and visit Looe Island for stunning views and tonnes of wildlife. Or, take a peek inside the Old Guildhall Museum and Gaol to learn more twisting tales about Looe's history!
