What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

Please Note:

This Trail has been written with younger pirates in mind! All the Clues have a picture to find enabling pre-readers to join in the search and be able to get involved with many of the easier Clues on this Trail, with guidance and help from adults or older siblings. Adults will need to help out with the directions and reading, but the whole family will be able to work together to find the 'treasure'.

The route is wholly within Valley Gardens so there are no roads to cross. The paths are wide with slight slopes in parts. Please note that scooters and bicycles are not allowed. Skateboards are allowed in the skatepark area only.

There is a playground, a cafe and public toilets within the park. There are also plenty of benches for a picnic.
