Alchemy Trail offers a symbolic journey through medieval London, tracing the seven stages of transformation in the alchemist’s art — from calcination to coagulation.
As you navigate the winding alleys of the old City, you’ll follow a path leading to the Philosopher’s Stone and the secret location of Dick Whittington’s hidden gold.
Clues are embedded within the city itself — coats of arms, carvings, architectural details, and epigraphs. You’ll uncover verses, codes, and fragments of a hidden past, one stage at a time.
The route spans 4km and is completely step-free.
Available in 11 languages (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic) — no guide is necessary.
