Somerset's timeless landscape provides a huge range of amazing places to explore.
There's idyllic villages like Dunster, Allerford and Crowcombe, the ancient mysteries of Glastonbury Tor and the Somerset Levels, historic towns like Bridgwater, Wells and Bath and the hustle and bustle of Taunton.
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 self-guided Treasure Trail.
Designed for ages from six to 106, there are no fewer than 29 Treasure Trails to choose from across Somerset with exciting locations like Cheddar, Exmoor and the Mendip Hills.
Explore Gough's Cave and the ancient limestone gorge on the Treasure Hunt Trail around the village of Cheddar. Solve the whodunit on a Murder Mystery Trail around the idyllic village of Somerton as you search for clues surrounding the Buttercross and old courthouse or crack the code and complete the Spy Mission Trail which takes you through the historic town of Bridgewater famous for its links to Guy Fawkes and Admiral Robert Blake.
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 a set of fiendish clues on a circular route of approximately two miles incorporating plaques, signs, statues, monuments, images, engravings or anything else the Trail writers can make use of.
They can be downloaded from Treasure Trails' website (www.treasuretrails.co.uk) and printed immediately, or sent in the post.
As well as providing a fun way to explore a new area, the Trails also offer the chance to see an area you thought you knew well in a totally different way.
