Treasure Map Trails

Treasure Map Trails are treasure maps of real towns for 5 to 12-year-olds. They’re a printed A3 map that kids can follow, using road names and recognisable buildings to find their way around as they search for treasures such as statues, sculptures, and quirky signs. Every map is beautifully illustrated with a fantasy theme to make them even more fun, and on the back are clues and fast facts about the town. When they’ve completed their map each adventurer moves up a level in the Treasure Map Trails Academy, and you download a certificate to celebrate.

There are four maps for Shropshire, with more on their way soon.
The Shrewsbury Castle map is themed with an alien invasion and covers a trail from the famous castle to Charles Darwin’s old school, along tiny roads to two ancient churches, and then back to the high street.
Or there’s a Shrewsbury Quarry adventure, with the pretty quarry park transformed into a jungle party. This trail heads into the town centre, along the shopping streets of Mardol, Shoplatch, and High Street.
In Ironbridge, pirates and trolls are on the loose as you hunt for treasures on both sides of the river.
And Bridgnorth has been transformed with wonders from across the world. How many can you identify as you explore through this beautiful town.

Treasure Map Trails costs £5.99, including first-class delivery with discounts for families buying several copies of the same map.

"🏰✨ Dive into the heart of Shrewsbury's Castle Quarter – the epicenter of history and grandeur! 🏰 Home to four of the town's largest historic treasures – Shrewsbury Castle, Library, Prison, and Train Station. 

Did you know Shrewsbury Castle's foundations were laid in 1083 by the 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, Roger de Montgomery? 
Montgomery, a cousin of William the Conqueror, earned this castle and more as a thank-you for his aid during the Norman conquest.

From royal stronghold to a 16th-century transformation, Shrewsbury Castle has quite the story. Now, it stands majestically, housing the Shropshire Regimental Museum. 👑🏰 Ready to step into the pages of history?
