We have three super duper themed Clubs for your child to enjoy as part of their Treasure Trail experience.
Perfect for 4-8 year olds, the concept behind the Clubs is that your child will get a bundle of goodies to excite them about their forthcoming Trail experience, something to keep them entertained whilst travelling to and from the Trail, and something to be given on completion of the Trail as a keepsake.

Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore Reading, there are a few things you need to know...
The Trail is not marked as friendly for wheelchair users or pushchairs due to steps and staircases along the route.
Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that this is a busy town centre, so dogs will need to be kept on leads through most of the Trail.
The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at Kings Meadow (RG1 8DF), just a five to ten minute walk away. Or why not try one of Reading's fantastic Park and Ride services?
There are some fantastic events in Reading's calendar, all of which are great times to visit this beautiful town. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions (especially events in Forbury Park). We recommend checking for events before you set off on your investigation.
There are toilets available in both Broad Street Mall and The Oracle shopping centre. There are many cafes, restaurants, pubs and other eating establishments along the way, including numerous on either side of the canal at The Oracle. If the weather is nice, a picnic in Forbury Gardens is a popular choice.
