What better way to mark this year's World Mental Health Day (10th October) than exercising the body and mind with a fun and stimulating walk?

Treasure Trails are themed self-guided booklets, costing £9.99 (plus P&P if required), which take explorers on a circular outdoor walking route of approximately two miles. Discover secrets of your hometown or uncover stories in places further afield as you solve clues to crack a detective mystery, treasure hunt, or spy mission.

Walking and being physically active can help decrease anxiety and stress and has proven to be a useful tool in those battling depression.

Aaron Hutchens, General Manager of Treasure Trails, commented: “Treasure Trails offer such a fun way for people to improve their mental health and enjoy the benefit of getting outside in the fresh air and discovering something completely new about your local area.

“Not only does it get people being active for a couple of hours a day but it also gets peoples brains working at a nice easy pace.”

World Mental Health Day is on Sunday 10th October 2021, with the aim of raising awareness of mental health issues around the world and helping efforts in support of mental health.
