Treasure hunt and trail game in Montpellier
Create an interactive GPS route in Montpellier. Your participants explore Place de la Comédie, Écusson, Promenade du Peyrou and Antigone with riddles on their phones.
Playing in Montpellier
The Écusson, the historic centre of Montpellier, takes its name from its shield shape, and it is explored without a car: lanes, glimpsed courtyards, private mansions. From the place de la Comédie to the promenade du Peyrou, the ground rises gently and opens onto wide perspectives. Further east, the Antigone quarter changes mood, with its regular colonnades and large squares. Teams alternate between strolling the lanes and solving observation riddles.
Summers are hot in Montpellier: play in the morning or late in the day and bring water. The Écusson is pedestrian, but its narrow lanes mean teams need to stay together.
Three route ideas in Montpellier
Lanes of the Écusson and private mansions
An observation game in the lanes of the Écusson: carved doors, glimpsed courtyards, plaques and inscriptions. A heritage route on foot, with short stops. No prior knowledge is needed.
Château d'eau and arches of the Peyrou
A route to the promenade du Peyrou: the château d'eau, the aqueduct and its arches, viewpoints and paths to walk. Observation riddles suited to families. A simple route, without excessive effort.
Columns and squares at Antigone
The colonnades of Antigone set the stage for a team challenge: symmetries to spot, perspectives to photograph, a path to reconstruct between squares and the banks of the Lez. The route suits groups of colleagues as well as friends.
