Winchester's historic buildings provide a huge range of amazing places to explore.
There's Winchester Castle, with a medieval Round Table strikingly similar to Arthurian Legend, the statue of another King, Alfred The Great stands at the end of Broadway, historic architecture including Wolvesey Castle, Winchester City Mill and Winchester Cathedral and the hustle and bustle of the city centre.
One great way to uncover the hidden secrets of all these locations and have a lot of fun at the same time it with a Treasure Trail.
Designed for ages from six to 106, there are 5 Treasure Trails to choose from in Winchester with enticing titles like 'Winchester City to St Catherines Hill', 'Winchester City and Castle' and 'Winchester City South Ghost Trail'.
Explore Winchester City and Cathedral on a Treasure Hunt Trail along the riverbank leading you past Wolvesey Castle and Winchester College. Solve the whodunit on the spooky Winchester City South Ghost Trail Murder Mystery Trail and crack the codes on a Spy Mission Trail on the Winchester City to St Catherine's Hill, the longest and most intrepid of all the Winchester Trails.
The Trails cost £6.99 (plus P&P if required), are suitable for groups of up to five and, compared to the average family day out at a theme park or visitor attraction, represent amazing value for money. They're also really popular with a Facebook star rating of 4.8/5.
Lasting around two hours, the aim is to solve clues on a circular route of approximately two miles incorporating plaques, signs, statues, monuments, images, engravings or any other unique or quirky features found in the area.
They can be downloaded from Treasure Trails' website (www.treasuretrails.co.uk) and printed immediately, or sent in the post.
