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.

We were a group of 3 generations between 17 and 70ish – you really don't need to have children with you to enjoy these trails.

Makes exploring towns really fun.

We've got a mission for you in

Little Venice

Little Venice, a peaceful canal area known for its quaint cafes, pubs, and play areas, is under threat from the notorious master villain, Rowan Paddle. He has developed a program that will cause the whole neighbourhood to slowly sink at the click of a button, unless his demand is met - the legendary Golden Gondola. But here's the twist - our experts at Spy HQ have gained access to the program, but the passcode is uncrackable. That's where YOU come in, Agents.

Spy Mission Through Little Venice - Can YOU Crack the Code?

Attention all top-secret agents - it's time to put your spy skills to the test! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to follow our instructions and find the traces of evidence that Rowan Paddle has left behind. But be careful, his spy ring is lurking around every corner, ready to sabotage your mission. Keep your eyes peeled as you tiptoe through the peaceful canal area of Little Venice, exploring its pretty streets and uncovering hidden clues.

But don't let the tranquillity distract you - the fate of Little Venice is in your hands. Can YOU crack the clues and reveal the code needed to deactivate the program before it's too late?

Agents, time is of the essence - Little Venice needs YOU! Will you accept the challenge?

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

PLEASE NOTE - St Mary's Churchyard (Clue 15) closes early (4.30pm) during the autumn and winter months.

Unfortunately, this Trail is not suitable for wheelchair users or pushchairs due to some unavoidable steps along the route.

Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that dogs will need to be kept on leads at all times.

The route starts and ends near London Paddington railway station, which can also be reached via the London Underground on the Bakerloo, Circle, District, Elizabeth and Hammersmith & City lines.

Access may be restricted to some parts of the Trail on some days due to special events or marches in central London. It's always best to check for known road closures ahead of travel.

There are public toilets in the station at the start and at Clue 13. There are plenty of places to grab refreshments on the way, especially around Paddington Canal Basin, and there are some nice picnic spots too.

Looking for more things to do in London? Make a day of it and visit one of the city`s nearby attractions, like the Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum, or try one of our other London Trails.

Mini Secret Agent 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.
