The Lapérouse secret: treasure hunt

The puzzles are accessible to all and do not require acute knowledge of history. You just need to be logical, curious and resourceful. To succeed in discovering the treasure, it is necessary to use the three maps that we provide and to decipher the text of the hunt. To reach the goal, you have to travel to various places in the Tarn department to discover clues that will lead you to a specific place where the seal of victory is hidden. The first person to find the seal in the right place wins the treasure, and the game ends.

The 2023 theme

This year we have chosen the Albigensian navigator Lapérouse as the main theme of the hunt. His unfinished world tour leaves anyone with imagination the possibility of dreaming up some mysterious secrets. That's what we did with “Le secret de Lapérouse”.

We imagined that Lapérouse created a treasure hunt for the children he never had.

He tells us a story that serves as the basis for the puzzle of the game.

Who hasn't dreamed of discovering pirate or sailor treasure stranded on a paradise island?
