Treasure Trail Hunting is not a skill but more of a mission. While training you'll often recieve clues dropped by the monsters. These clues contain tricky puzzles you must follow and solve. The mission based hunts all lead to rewards which give expensive armours such as those only found in Treasure Trails and many other items scarse on the markets. The Hunts are a great way to put aside all your skills, and quests and just have some fun on RuneScape. Treasure Trail Hunting is a members only activity put the rewards are often F2P safe.
