The Dundee City Treasure Trail is a self-guided treasure hunt adventure through the medieval city of Dundee. Starting at Yeaman Shore, this fun walking Trail invites explorers to solve clues while discovering the city’s historic streets and landmarks. It is designed for adventurers aged 6 to 106 and offers a unique way to explore Dundee at your own pace.
The story follows young Roger ‘Dodgy’ Dodger, who discovers an old treasure map hidden in his attic. The map is believed to reveal the location of a secret hoard of Russian and Spanish gold doubloons brought to Dundee on the RRS Discovery. As part of the Intrepid Explorers Society, you must follow the clues, outsmart rival treasure hunters, and track down the hidden treasure before it’s too late. This 1.5-mile loop Trail takes around 1.5 hours to complete and guides you through locations such as Albert Square and City Square. There is a text message service for extra clues if you get stuck, and successful treasure seekers are entered into a £100 monthly draw.
£9.99 GBP per Trail (not per person), with one Trail booklet recommended for a group of 4 to 5 people. Treasure Trails can also be used for birthday parties, making them a ready-to-go outdoor adventure for small teams.
The Dundee City Treasure Trail combines sightseeing, storytelling and problem-solving in one exciting experience. It is perfect for families, friends and visitors wanting to learn more about the city in a fun and interactive way. Whether local or visiting, it turns a simple walk around Dundee into a thrilling treasure hunt.
