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
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Plymouth, there are a few things you need to know...
Unfortunately, due to some unavoidable steps at the war memorial on The Hoe, the route is not friendly for wheelchair users, however those with pushchairs, if you are happy to negotiate a few steps, you should be fine!
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 pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Theatre Royal car park (PL1 2TR), which is right beside the start point. Other city centre car parks are available. Or, why not try Plymouth's fantastic Park and Ride service?
There are some fantastic events in Plymouth's calendar, all of which are great times to visit this vibrant ocean city. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions - particularly during the MTV Festival. If you would like further information about event dates, please contact Plymouth Tourist Information.
There are public toilets available near Clues 13 and 17. The route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way, and there's a great picnic spot halfway along at The Hoe.
Looking for more things to do in Plymouth? Make a day of it and fit in some retail therapy at Drake Circus, or learn more twisting tales at the Mayflower Museum. If you're up for an extra challenge, try your hand at treasure seeking with our Plymouth Waterfront & Pavillions Trail!
