Truro - for Whom the Bell Tolls

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

This Trail has not been marked as accessible for wheelchair users due to some steps and uneven surfaces along the route. However, those with pushchairs should find this manageable. There are some steps encountered after Clue 09, but lighter pushchairs can be carried here.

Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that the city centre can get very busy, so please keep your dog on a lead throughout the Trail.

The closest pay and display car park to this Trail's start point is located at Garras Wharf (TR1 2TN), just a two-minute walk from Clue 01. Please visit their websites for information on parking and charges. A park and ride service is available from the east and west of the city, too, dropping off at several places - although you'll want to get off at Quay Street for this investigation!

There are some fantastic events in Truro's calendar, all of which are great times to visit this beautiful 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 festive period). If you would like further information about event dates, please contact Truro Tourist Information.

There are public toilets available at the start and endpoint of the Trail and near a few clues along the way. The route passes several pubs, restaurants and a few cafes throughout the city, with a fantastic picnic spot around Clues 07-10!

Why not make a whole day of it and visit Truro Cathedral or the Royal Cornwall Museum to learn more about Truro's history? You could even challenge yourself to our Enjoy Truro Trail and let out your inner treasure seeker!
