Treasure hunts are a great way of exploring a city but they also work well in the country. The tempo is a little slower but you can run over a greater distance to ensure that there’s is still plenty of challenge. The New Forest is a great location and doing the event on mountain bikes is a wonderful experience. Treasure hunt writers look out for interesting things, for example this plaque hidden deep in a village somewhere.
