Tracking Down the Missing Ice Cream Recipe

Attention all young adventurers! Durham's beloved ice cream maker, Giuseppe Garabaldi, has had his prize-winning recipe stolen! We need your help to retrieve the recipe from the dastardly thieves and save the day.

Treasure Hunt Through Durham's Castle and Cathedral

Join the Exploration Society on this fun and family-friendly Treasure Hunt Trail through Durham's Castle and Cathedral. As you follow the trail, you'll unravel the clues left behind by the wannabe villains and discover the location of the buried treasure.

But be warned, this won't be an easy task! It will take bravery and cunning to retrieve Giuseppe's recipe from right under the thieves' noses. Along the way, you'll enjoy beautiful riverside views and explore the World Heritage Site outside of the Cathedral.

Do YOU have what it takes to follow the clues and save the day for Durham's favourite ice cream maker?
