Edinburgh Schatzsuche Ost

Our treasure hunts are perfect for spending quality time outdoors with friends or family.

Suitable for adults & kids, have fun exploring somewhere new and discovering its history!

Finish it off with some relaxing food & drink in a cosy pub...

The East Edinburgh Treasure Hunt takes you to the sights and tourist attractions on the East Side of the City.

Edinburgh treasure hunt is a race route, so you can buy one route and work together on the same team or get two routes (East & West) and compete against each other in a race or for a team-building exercise. Both start at the same spot and intertwine towards the same treasure. To get racing order your race pack here. 

Start: Outside the Omni Centre on Greenside Row, EH1 3AU

Length: 2.75 miles, 2-3 hours.

Treasure: Welcoming city-centre pub in a great location (20% off food & drinks deals - not during the Fringe Festival).

East Route: Snakes around the east of the city centre exploring the famous landmarks and views!

Each pack is for two persons only.

For more people please add to the order, every person receives a personal compass and wristband or specific digital code to obtain the discount.

Hard - Full pack including printed maps, clues sheets, end prize envelope compass, clipboard and bring your own pen to help us save on plastic and our carbon footprint :) (£1.99 postage for orders under £25). 

Digital - Downloads emailed to you containing just PDFs of the pack, we recommend this should only be used when there is no time for postage as the hard copy provides a far better experience or at the very least print it out. It is strongly advised to bring a pen and paper with you for workings out and the use of a compass on a phone.

See the How It Works page here.

How does the racing work?

2 treasure hunt routes that start at the same spot and finish at the same treasure pub.

The hunts are the same distance and inter-twine with each other.

Split into teams and race each other to the pub!

Great for team-building exercises and corporate days out

Great for large parties, stag do's and hen do's

I'm confused about how many to buy for a Race Pack...

If you purchase for two people you will have 1 v 1, if you purchase for 3 you will have 1 v 2, if you purchase for 4 you will have 2 v 2 etc.. Good luck!
