The Mysterious Disappearance of Barnaby Wild - Can YOU Solve the Clues and Bring Him Home?
It was a normal day in the life of daring explorer Barnaby Wild until he suddenly disappeared, only to reappear in a topsy-turvy universe called Northstart. With the help of a talking seagull, Barnaby has been given a map and a series of Clues to guide him back to his own world. But in this strange universe, the Clues are all written backwards, making it impossible for Barnaby to solve them. Can YOU help him find his way back home?
Treasure Hunt Through Southend-on-Sea
Join Barnaby on an exciting self-guided Treasure Hunt through the charming seaside town of Southend-on-Sea. As you follow the Trail route, you'll explore the seafront, gardens, and historic Westcliff area of this popular holiday destination.
Starting and ending at Southend railway station, you'll encounter sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. Use your keen detective skills to uncover the location of the buried treasure and help Barnaby return home in time for tea.

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.

Please Note:
The Trail route passes through the cliff gardens, which are currently subject to some subsidence. While completing this Trail, you must take great care to follow any instructions about which paths to use, observe local signs and follow any diversions that may be in place.
The Trail also passes the famous pier, which is well worth a visit, although a fee will need to be paid to do so. Please note that it is subject to restricted opening hours.
