Hiding and finding cists : exciting entertainment for all the family !
http://www.cistes.net/index.php
Free site, available in French and English. This site deals with cist-hiding and cist-finding (in ancient Greece, a "cist" was a basket used to carry sacred gifts for the gods). Today, it is a waterproof plastic box - Tupperware or similar - containing some objects of little or no value. Members hide these cists ourdoors and write short riddles allowing to locate the spots (unlike Geocaching, they don't use GPS's). So far, over 6200 cists have been hidden in Europe and there were found by 36000 + people.

The Armchair Treasure Hunt Club
http://www.treasureclub.net/publichunts/
The Armchair Treasure Hunt Club publishes its own exclusive hunts for its members but also keeps track of current hunts available to the general public - through the bimonthly newsletter and online bulletin board.
Public hunts come in many shapes and sizes and are published for a number of reasons. Some are devised to promote charities or causes, many are written by budding hunt-setters on a non- or low-profit basis, whilst others are commercial. But with hunts you often don't get what you pay for, so don't assume the free hunts are any less well-crafted and enjoyable that the commercial hunts.
