Description

Thun stacks a 12th-century castle above a medieval market street with raised sidewalks — and drops the whole arrangement beside a turquoise Alpine lake with the Eiger on the horizon. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Thun on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Cross the Rathausplatz, the arcaded square at the foot of the castle hill • Climb to Schloss Thun, the white keep with four corner towers above the roofs • Visit the Stadtkirche, whose octagonal tower watches over lake and old town Around 2 hours, any group size, available in German and French. By the last riddle, the gateway to the Bernese Oberland will have opened up completely.

Scavenger Hunt Tuna with Children

I was with my children (7, 9, 11j) on a scavenger hunt through tuna and it was great fun for us. Everyone could think along and the puzzles were interesting and insightful. A picture we didn't find partout and would have liked to know where that was. Two other places were just undergoing refurbishment, which is why not everything was quite findable and why we lost points. But that was not bad at all and the description to the next place we could follow up well. We want to do more scavenger hunts in other cities.
