Playing in Paris
In Paris, every neighbourhood has its own character and the scenery changes within a few streets. Montmartre climbs by stairways to its squares, Le Marais mixes old mansions and small shops, the Île de la Cité gathers monuments in the middle of the Seine, and the Tour Eiffel is a landmark visible from afar. A trail game lets you choose a single neighbourhood and read it in detail, rather than rushing from one monument to the next without looking at anything.
Paris is quickly crossed on foot, but pavements are very busy on some days. Choose a single neighbourhood per game and set precise meeting points in case the team gets scattered.
Three route ideas in Paris
The stairways of Montmartre
An athletic route through the sloping streets of Montmartre, with its stairways, small squares and views over the city. The riddles cover façades, shop signs and viewpoints.
Investigation in Le Marais
Between private mansions, the place des Vosges and small streets, teams look for clues about architecture and trade. A setting suited to an outing with friends or a bachelorette party.
The quays around the Île de la Cité
A short route around the Île de la Cité and the quays of the Seine, for a family or passing visitors. The riddles are solved by looking at the bridges, the quays and the neighbouring monuments.
