Treasure hunt and trail game in Niort

Create an interactive GPS route in Niort. Your participants explore Donjon, Marais Poitevin, halles and Pilori with riddles on their phones.

Playing in Niort

Niort is organised around its donjon, which watches over the Sèvre niortaise from the bank. Around it, the halles, the Pilori and the streets of the centre are covered on foot without particular effort. A few minutes away by car, the Marais poitevin offers a completely different setting, with its canals and flat-bottomed boats, and inspires routes that want a nature spirit. Depending on the time you have, the route stays in town or extends into the landscape.

If you combine the game with a walk in the Marais poitevin, plan it separately: distances are covered by car and visiting conditions vary with the season.
