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 on your awesome adventure to explore Shrewsbury, there are a few things you need to know…
The route isn’t friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.
Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that dogs may need to be kept on leads.
The closest long-stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Raven Meadows (SY1 1HE), just a few minutes’ walk away. Or why not try Shrewsbury’s Park and Ride service?
There are some fantastic events in Shrewsbury’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 become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. Please check for events before setting off.
There are public toilets available in the park towards the middle of the Trail. This is also a fantastic spot for a picnic.
Looking for more things to do in Shrewsbury? Make a day of it and visit the Shropshire Wildlife Trust Visitor Centre or the Battlefield 1403 farm shop, exhibition and bird of prey centre. You could even challenge yourself to our Shrewsbury Market Town Trail and let out your inner treasure seeker!
