Create a trail game or treasure hunt in Montreux
To create a treasure hunt in Montreux, the places are already there: Statue de Freddie Mercury, Marché couvert de Montreux, Grand hôtel suisse Majestic. All that is left is to place your stops, write the riddles and share the link: players follow the route on their phones.
In Montreux, 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.

Montreux rises from the shore of Lake Geneva, at the foot of wooded slopes. On the quays, the Freddie Mercury statue draws visitors, the Marché couvert, a hall with an iron and timber frame, opens onto the water, and the grand hotels, including the Majestic and the Montreux Palace, line up their facades not far from the promenade. The route stays almost flat along the lake. Montreux has no quest yet: its lakefront is waiting for a first trail.
Three possible quests in Montreux
Freddie Mercury statue and quay for families
An easy trail for children along the quay: benches, masts, boats and a statue to observe, short riddles and breaks facing the lake. The route is flat and easy to shorten.
Facades and grand hotels, an architecture route
A circuit between the Marché couvert, the Grand Hôtel Suisse Majestic and the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace: balconies, roofs, signs and ornaments to note to unlock each stop.
A musical evening between friends
For friends or colleagues, a game between teams that starts at the Freddie Mercury statue, passes the Marché couvert and ends in front of a grand hotel, with riddles built around music.

Play elsewhere in the meantimeWhat to know on the ground
The quays are busy and run along the lake, so keep an eye on children and avoid stops at the water's edge. The climb to the hotels is a little steep, so keep it for the end of the game.
