Vallenå managed to persuade her cousin to drive her the long distance from their home to  Björkliden once she believed she had worked out the clues.  The duo drove through the night and arrived at 3.30am and began their search straight away, she told Swedish media.

However it took until 4pm that day before they finally found it.  Josefin was given a crown as a reward for being the first to find the throne by film company HBO as well as recognition on their social media channels.

Two of four iron thrones have been located so far with two still to be located.
