Create a trail game or treasure hunt in Honfleur
To create a treasure hunt in Honfleur, the places are already there: Vieux Bassin, Lieutenance de Honfleur, Église Sainte-Catherine. All that is left is to place your stops, write the riddles and share the link: players follow the route on their phones.
In Honfleur, 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.

Honfleur is organised around its Vieux Bassin, lined with tall narrow slate-covered façades. The Lieutenance marks one corner of the harbour, Sainte-Catherine church, built of wood, stands slightly back with its separate bell tower, and the Maisons Satie recall the composer born here. Everything lies within a short distance, which makes the quest flow: quays, lanes, returns to the basin. The port has no quest yet: it is a chance to show these quays before anyone else.
Three possible quests in Honfleur
Around the Vieux Bassin with the family
An easy trail for children: boats, masts, shop signs and reflections to spot on the quays, then a last riddle in front of the Lieutenance. The route is short and entirely flat.
Wooden church and separate bell tower
A heritage route between Sainte-Catherine church and Saint-Étienne church: teams compare roof frames, materials and bell towers to validate each stop in their logbook.
Evening with friends between quays and lanes
For a group of friends, an investigation between the salt warehouses, the Maisons Satie and the restaurants of the port, with breaks built into the route. The shopkeepers of the port and the tourist office can join in this route.
