Treasure hunt and trail game in Avignon
Create an interactive GPS route in Avignon. Your participants explore Palais des Papes, pont d'Avignon, remparts and Place de l'Horloge with riddles on their phones.
Playing in Avignon
A ring of ramparts, still largely preserved, surrounds the centre of Avignon and naturally sets the limits of the game. Inside, the place de l'Horloge, the Palais des Papes and its surroundings form a dense area, while the Pont d'Avignon and the Rhône open up the space on the river side. Narrow streets, squares with plane trees, old gates: the town is walked on foot and read easily, which suits groups mixing adults and children.
The mistral can rise on the ramparts and beside the Rhône: plan a windproof jacket. During the festival, the streets of the centre are very busy, so choose quiet hours.
Three route ideas in Avignon
The Palais des Papes and its rock
A route that climbs towards the rocher des Doms, near the Palais des Papes, before coming back down to the place de l'Horloge. Observation riddles about the walls, the gates and the views towards the Rhône.
Around the ramparts
A town-wide game that follows the ramparts and their gates to link the districts. Each team spots the towers and openings, before reaching the Pont d'Avignon.
An evening on the place de l'Horloge
An evening version for friends or colleagues: short riddles in the streets near the place de l'Horloge and a final meeting on a terrace. To be adjusted to the crowds.
