Secrets of Darmstadt Self-Guided Scavenger Hunt & Walking Tour

The game starts at Luisenplatz. From the square the route reaches the Residenzschloss, crosses towards Luisenplatz and passes the Hessisches Landesmuseum. Each of those stops sets a question you can only answer by looking properly. Along the way it plays like a scavenger hunt through Darmstadt, with something to find at every stop. The game works for friends, couples, families and colleagues who enjoy walking with something to solve. One ticket covers a team of one to four people on a single phone; larger groups split into teams and buy a ticket each. You can also play alone. No guide comes along and no start time is fixed, so a slow lap through Darmstadt is entirely acceptable.

Near St. Ludwig's Church, the Staatstheater, the Datterich Fountain and the monuments to Alice and Justus Liebig you pick up facts and stories about the grand dukes, the scientists and the local characters connected to these places. When several teams are out at once the walk becomes a contest, with points per answer and a leaderboard at the end. It is used for team outings and works just as well for an afternoon with friends. You can stop for a while and resume later, finishing back on the squares in the middle of Darmstadt.
