Create a trail game or treasure hunt in Arles
To create a treasure hunt in Arles, the places are already there: Arènes d'Arles, Théâtre antique d'Arles, Église Notre-Dame-la-Major. All that is left is to place your stops, write the riddles and share the link: players follow the route on their phones.
In Arles, the quest is still to be written
Here is what it could look like: the stops already exist in the city, the riddles do not yet.

Arles lines up Antiquity and the living town in a very compact centre. The arenas and the ancient theatre stand a few steps from each other, Notre-Dame-la-Major church and Saint-Césaire church punctuate the streets, and the Palais de Luppé and the Hôtel Damian de Vinsargues recall the town's past. The Rhône runs beside the centre. A trail game here is played on foot, on flat and readable ground. No quest in Arles yet: the first creator will be able to show the town beyond its familiar monuments.
Three possible quests in Arles
Arenas and ancient theatre, a Roman route
An observation game for everyone: teams note the arches, tiers and openings of the arenas and the ancient theatre, before moving to a third place for the final round.
Rhône quays with the family
Young investigators note landmarks on the quays and bridges, with riddles about boats and trees, in a calm area away from the traffic of the centre.
Churches and mansions, a heritage circuit
For a group of friends or colleagues, a route between Notre-Dame-la-Major, Saint-Césaire and the Palais de Luppé, with riddles about bell towers, doorways and courtyards. A town council, a tourist office or a neighbourhood association could host it.
Arles needs a quest. Who will launch it?
Tourist office, local authority
A route that takes residents and visitors from one place to the next, at their own pace, on their phones. You choose the stops and what is told there: the content stays yours.

Association, company, event host
A members’ outing, a team day, a neighbourhood party: start from one of the three ideas and place your stops on the map. The draft costs nothing, the game is paid by use, in credits.
