Create a trail game or treasure hunt in Langres
To create a treasure hunt in Langres, the places are already there: Cathédrale Saint-Mammès, Tour de Navarre, Porte des Moulins. All that is left is to place your stops, write the riddles and share the link: players follow the route on their phones.
In Langres, 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.

Langres occupies a spur whose very long ramparts form a circular promenade. The Navarre tower and the porte des Moulins mark its course, Saint-Mammès cathedral overlooks the centre, and the Gallo-Roman gate, called the triumphal arch, recalls Antiquity. A statue honours Denis Diderot, born in the town, in front of the Maison des Lumières. For a quest, the rampart offers a clear route, with the view as a reward. No quest is on offer here yet, and these ramparts are waiting only for whoever wants to show them.
Three possible quests in Langres
Rampart tour, a trail game in a loop
A circuit that follows the rampart: Navarre tower, porte des Moulins, views of the countryside. Teams note defensive landmarks to validate each point of the route.
Diderot and his Enlightenment as a team
A trail of ideas, starting from the statue of Denis Diderot and the Maison des Lumières, with riddles about words, books and inscriptions visible in the district.
Family on the ramparts
Children walk an easy stretch of the rampart with a clue booklet, then go back down to Saint-Mammès cathedral. The route is short, safe and easy to cut. The tourist office can see it as a way to liven up the ramparts for visitors.
Langres 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.
