The Mysterious Treasure Map Awaits - Can YOU Unlock Its Secrets?
While on a leisurely stroll along the Yorkshire Wolds Way, countryside enthusiasts Barb Dwyer and Theresa Green stumbled upon a fallen tree with exposed roots. As they inspected the area, they discovered a porcelain casket covered in soil. After struggling to open it, they were amazed to find an old treasure map and a set of puzzling clues inside. Now, they need the help of TOP explorers (that's YOU!) to decipher the clues and find the hidden treasure. But beware, the Melton Amateur Treasure Hunters (MATHs) have caught wind of the map and are determined to reach the treasure first. It's up to you to beat them to it - after all, nobody likes MATHs, do they?

Before You Set Off
Before You Set Off
Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Welton and the Yorkshire Wolds Way, there are a few things you need to know...
The route isn’t friendly for wheelchair users due to stretches along quiet village roads without pavements and narrow pathways, as well as some parts that may be muddy. However, those with light pushchairs should find this manageable.
Bring your four-legged friends along! This is a dog-friendly Trail route.
There aren’t any public toilets in Welton – the nearest ones are in Brough or next to the Humber Bridge Tourist Information Centre. The route only passes a couple of refreshment stops, so make sure you have snacks to keep you going. Pause for a picnic on the village green.
Looking for more things to do near Welton? Make a day of it and visit the nearby Humber Bridge Country Park, or, if you’re feeling adventurous, take to the water with Welton Waters Adventure Centre. If you don’t mind travelling a little further out of Welton, the Museum of East Riding Rural Life at Cottingham is well worth a visit.
