Treasure hunt

Treasure hunting is a life-size experience in the Pays Loudunais. Forget treasure maps that smell of damp and old chests full of gold. Here, you can kick up the dust and put on your trainers to set off on anadventure. Outdoors or in dedicated areas, the principle is simple: keep your eyes peeled and set off to explore the area, following the clues along the way.

You don’t need to be a seasoned explorer to take part. The routes take you through charming villages, hedgerow-lined lanes and country corners that even the locals are happy to rediscover. At each stage, there’s a riddle to solve, a detail to observe, a curiosity to unearth. It’s fun, a bit sporty, sometimes twisted (just the right amount), and above all, it’s the perfect excuse to venture where you wouldn’t normally go. And sometimes the game is played in a dark room from which you have to escape in record time (brrr…).

As a family, with friends or on your own, there’s something for everyone. Younger children love playing detective, while adults see it as another fun way to get the whole tribe together. And as the game progresses, more than treasure is gleaned: a good dose of laughter, a few anecdotes, and often a desire to start again.

The Loudunais region lends itself wonderfully well to this kind of experience: a rich heritage, a generous natural environment and service providers just waiting to thrill you. So if you like challenges, maps and getting lost just enough, this is the adventure for you. Ready, set, go! Get set!
