Legend has it that on a dark Christmas Eve, a priceless golden goblet set with jewels vanished from a bleak house in the town. But now, a twist in the tale has been uncovered by Arthur Dodger, the owner of an old curiosity bookshop. Inside a first edition of the infamous Picnic Papers, a tatty old treasure map covered in scribbled notes has been found. Could this map lead to the final resting place of the missing goblet?

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Please Note:
The route includes narrow pavement, cobbles, some steps and some grassy areas making it unsuitable for wheelchair users or pushchairs.
The Trail explores the historical market town of Malton before heading to the picturesque village of Old Malton. You have the option of driving to Old Malton or walking along the riverside to reach the second part of the Trail.
PLEASE NOTE: the riverside walk can be quite muddy in places - it's a much nicer walk if the weather has recently been dry, so we recommend checking before your arrival.
Dogs are welcome on this Trail, with the walking option providing a good walk for you and your canine companion.
There are plenty of refreshment opportunities in Malton during the first part of the Trail and one pub in Old Malton in the second part or you could take a picnic to enjoy by the riverside.
There are public toilets in the Long Stay car park and in Market Place at the start of the Trail.
