More Information:

Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Cambridge, there are a few things you need to know...

This Trail is part of a set that covers Cambridge. You can see which area each Trail covers by clicking this link and downloading the Trail territory PDF.

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, and some restrictions may be encountered.

The closest long-stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Queen Anne Terrace (CB1 1ND), less than a minute away from your first clue. Or why not try Cambridge’s fantastic Park and Ride service?

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

There are public toilets available towards the beginning of the Trail, which are passed again at Clue 17; you’ll need some change and they are pay-to-use. The route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way, while Parker’s Piece is perfect for picnics!

Looking for more things to do in Cambridge? Make a day of it and take a tour of one of Cambridge’s beautiful Colleges, or have a go at one of the other Trails in our Cambridge collection!

Mini Detective 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.
