About this Event

Wander through Heidelberg’s old town, visit the famous Heidelberg Castle, and enjoy the scenic views along the Neckar River. This self-guided scavenger hunt brings you closer to the city’s rich heritage and hidden gems, offering a unique way to experience its beauty and history.

An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

Once you're in Bismarckplatz Park download the app and use the maps integration to reach the attractions. (An internet connection is required)

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the city sightseeing game.

Once you put in the correct code, the app will reveal the next destination and riddle to you. The puzzles are independent and not connected to each other through a story, so interact with the attractions and their exteriors to work out the answers.

Take the opportunity to snap some photos as you walk between locations, and pause the game whenever you want. Have a coffee, visit a museum, go for lunch, or even wait until another day — the game will be waiting for you.
