Can You Save the Keswick Graphite Mine?

The peaceful town of Keswick is under threat! Shady genius Dr Leadfinger has hatched a scheme to destroy the Graphite Mine that supplies the local Pencil Museum. His plans may seem sketchy, but our finest agent, H.B. Jotter, believes there's more to it than meets the eye.

Agent Jotter has been hot on Leadfinger's trail, but after a clumsy mishap, all of their files have been accidentally erased. Now it's up to YOU, our sharpest agents, to track down and crack the clues scattered throughout Keswick. Remember to take note of your findings, as they hold the key to saving the town's beloved pencils!

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

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

Unfortunately, this route is not friendly for wheelchair users or pushchairs due to some steep inclines, uneven surfaces and a few steps. 

Bring your four-legged friends along! This Trail is along a dog-friendly route.

The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Central Car Park (CA12 5DN) on Heads Road, just a five-minute walk away.

There are some fantastic events in Keswick's calendar, from the fantastic summer Street Theatre performances to the phenomenal Mountain Festival. Although these are great times to visit Keswick, some of the clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access. If you would like further information about event dates, please contact Keswick Visitor Information.

There are public toilets available towards the beginning and end of the Trail, and the route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way. The lake and park areas make great picnic spots if the weather is nice!

Why not make a day of it and visit Derwent Pencil Museum, or you could even have a go at our Keswick - Down By The Lake Trail!
