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.

A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Woking

Woking is known for its stunning art and sculptures, including larger-than-life painted figures created by former resident and renowned sculptor, Sean Henry. However, the community is in an uproar as his newest piece, "Restless Woman," has disappeared before its unveiling. It's a total mystery as to who could have masterminded the crime and how they were able to move the sculpture without being seen.

Chief Inspector Will Gettem has drawn up a list of suspects and possible means of defence, but he needs YOUR help to narrow down the list and solve this case. Can YOU outsmart the thief and uncover the truth?

More Information:

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

The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.

Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that it is a busy town centre, so dogs will need to be kept on leads. 

The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Heathside Car Park (GU22 7AG), just a three minute walk away.

There are some fantastic events in Woking’s calendar, all of which are great times to visit this beautiful town. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. If you would like further information about event dates, please contact Woking Tourist Information.

There are public toilets available towards the beginning and middle of the Trail, and the route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way. 

Why not make a day of it and visit The Lightbox gallery and museum to see what more Woking has to offer? You could even challenge yourself to our Woking War of the Worlds Trail and let out your inner slippery spy!

Mini Detective 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.
