They are a really good and fun way to explore a new town or city, or your local area... Suitable for all ages. We are in our 70's.

Top secret!

We've got a mission for you in

Swindon

Attention all super spies! We have a top-secret mission for you.

Embark on an exhilarating self-guided Spy Mission Trail through the bustling town of Swindon. As you navigate through the shopping centre, park, and heritage sites, keep your eyes peeled for hidden clues and unravel the twisted tales of Swindon's past.

But beware, agent, you never know who might be watching and listening…

Our insider sources have revealed that foreign agents are plotting a cyber-attack on the entire railway network. If they succeed, chaos will ensue throughout the country. But fear not, we have an undercover mole within their group who has scattered clues around Swindon. These clues will reveal a code that will give us access to their network and thwart their wicked plan. Can you crack the code and save the railways? The fate of the nation rests in your hands.

Treasure Hunt Through Swindon

Get ready for an exciting self-guided Treasure Hunt that will take you on a journey through the rich history and scenic landscapes of Swindon. As you make your way through the town, keep an eye out for sneaky clues hidden in historic buildings, permanent features, and intriguing monuments.

Your adventure begins in the heart of Swindon, where our mole has left behind the first clue. But be warned, this Trail won't be easy. The foreign agents are always one step ahead, and only the most daring treasure seekers will be able to crack the code.

Swindon is counting on you, agent. Will you accept the mission and save the day?

The regular opening hours are Monday to Friday: 10:00 - 20:00; Saturday: 09:00 - 19:00; Sunday: 10:00 - 18:00. Special opening hours apply on bank holidays and during festive periods, so please check the website before you go out on your Trail adventure.

This route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.

Unfortunately, this route goes through areas where dogs are not allowed, so they won't be able to join you on your Trail adventure.

There are public toilets and refreshment stops throughout the Designer Outlet and just before Clue 08.

Mini Secret Agent 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.
