Follow the routes on a treasure island map to find the hidden treasure.

Let's solve the treasure hunt step by step using the map and instructions provided.

Step 1: Understand the Map

- The map is a grid where each square represents 1 km (as stated in the scale: "One square = one kilometre").
- We start at the red arrow pointing east from the bottom-left corner, near the coastline.
- Directions are based on cardinal directions: North, South, East, West.
- We'll follow each instruction sequentially and mark our path.

Step 2: Follow the Instructions

We begin at the starting point marked by the red arrow.

#### 1. Go East 3 km
- Move 3 squares to the right (East).
- From the starting point (let’s say it's at the edge of the water), we go 3 km east.
- Now we're at the palm tree location.

✔ Step 1 complete.

#### 2. Go North 5 km
- Move 5 squares up (North).
- This takes us from the palm tree upward through the island.
- We pass over the small lake and end up near the hut with the yellow roof.

✔ Step 2 complete.

#### 3. Go East 2 km
- Move 2 squares to the right (East).
- We move past the hut and reach a small cave or rock formation.

✔ Step 3 complete.

#### 4. Go South 2 km
- Move 2 squares down (South).
- We go back toward the center of the island, passing near the large boulder.

✔ Step 4 complete.

#### 5. Go East 3 km
- Move 3 squares to the right (East).
- We move across the island toward the river, passing the cactus and ending near the waterfall area.

✔ Step 5 complete.

#### 6. Go South 3 km
- Move 3 squares down (South).
- We head south from the waterfall, crossing the river and going into the mountainous region.

✔ Step 6 complete.

#### 7. Go West 3 km
- Move 3 squares to the left (West).
- We move westward through the mountains, passing near the rocky cliffs.

✔ Step 7 complete.

#### 8. Go North 3 km
- Move 3 squares up (North).
- We go north from the mountain area, back toward the central part of the island.

✔ Step 8 complete.

#### 9. Go West 4 km
- Move 4 squares to the left (West).
- This takes us further west, passing near the blue tent and moving toward the left side of the map.

✔ Step 9 complete.

#### 10. Go South 1 km
- Move 1 square down (South).
- We move slightly south from the current position.

✔ Step 10 complete.

#### 11. Go East 1 km
- Move 1 square to the right (East).
- Slight movement eastward.

✔ Step 11 complete.

#### 12. Go North 3 km
- Move 3 squares up (North).
- We go north again, heading toward the top of the island, near the cave and tall trees.

✔ Step 12 complete.

#### 13. Go East 2 km
- Move 2 squares to the right (East).
- This places us near the top-right corner of the map, close to the tree and rocks.

✔ Step 13 complete.

#### 14. Mark a cross
- Place an X at this final location.

✔ Final Answer:

The treasure is located at the spot reached after following all 13 steps.

This is near the top-right corner of the map, just east of the tall trees and rocks, possibly near a small cluster of trees and a rocky outcrop.

> 🔹 The Treasure is in:
> Near the top-right corner of the island, just east of the large rock formation and trees.

You can now mark a cross (X) at that spot on your map.
