I haven't had time to read all of this yet, but this sounds INTRIGUING !!
A bonafide treasure hunt through Paris - how cool is THAT !!
It's arranged by the city. The last event took place on the 7th of July 2007. It was in the the 3, 6, 13, 18 and 19. arrondissements.

You may click on the little English flag. If you click on "diaporama" in the bottom right corner, you can see pics from last hunt.
This is the description:
Come and hunt Paris treasures. The treasure hunt is free and open to all. You can enrol here or in front of the town hall of the 3rd, 6th, 13th, 18th, 19th districts on July 7th. The surreal adventure organized by Paris City Hall will be a unique way to discover the city, its secrets and its inhabitants.
You can hunt for the treasure alone or with friends (6 max). On your way, you will need to use your brain, your intuition, your observation skills, and you'll have to be brave. Navigating in the maze of Paris streets, the treasure hunters will have to ask mysterious Paris characters for some clues.
You will come across the stories and legends of Paris , meeting some greatest characters of the city: famous writers, actors, singers or revolutionaries who will come back to life on July 7th.
The treasure hunters will also get a feel for the authentic heart of Paris : meeting shop keepers, craftsmen and artists or discovering little-known places like hidden gardens, narrow streets and secret passages
