Everyone knows that Lancaster is rich with history, but now you can get a little richer by knowing some Lancaster history.

How to Play

This exclusive adventure is available only to members of the Historic Preservation Trust of Lancaster County.

Members receive a decoder paper with how to organize the GPS coordinates, a location poem to help further zero in on the location, and a claim code riddle.

How it Works

Each week on Saturday at 7 am, the next clue and location to explore will be revealed. Adventurers will need to visit a series of historic and architecturally significant Lancaster County locations as they solve puzzles or complete the tasks to reveal a portion of the treasureโ€™s GPS coordinates.

Those able to complete the quest unlock the resting place of a cache that redeems for the coin-laded treasure chest.

Its finders keepers for the first person to finish this treasure hunt. However, keep in mind that the treasure is hidden in such a way that only official participants will be able to find and claim itโ€”so be sure to purchase your Trust membership.

Never miss a treasure hunting update or clue by signing up below and following Uncharted Lancaster and the Trust on social media.
