A record number of participants took part in the fourth edition of The Hunt, a treasure hunt organised by Times of Malta on Saturday. 

Organised by Times Events, the participants gathered at the Times of Malta offices in Mrieħel where all participants gathered for registration and the collection of clue sheets. Coffee was served to all by Costa Coffee, the new cafe in Mrieħel.

Participants then embarked on a three-hour hunt through different locations, looking for clues and treasures, which were handed in to the judges at the end of the hunt.
