Create a trail game or treasure hunt in Vianden
To create a treasure hunt in Vianden, the places are already there: Château de Vianden, Église des Trinitaires, Musée littéraire Victor-Hugo. All that is left is to place your stops, write the riddles and share the link: players follow the route on their phones.
In Vianden, 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.

Vianden fills a narrow valley along the Our, beneath the silhouette of its castle. The main street runs down to the river, past the town hall, the Église Saint-Nicolas, the Église des Trinitaires and the house where Victor Hugo stayed, now a literary museum. The tight-set houses and the climb to the castle make a very readable route. Vianden has no quest yet: this small centre is waiting for its first trail game.
Three possible quests in Vianden
Castle and the Our valley
A heritage route that climbs to the castle and comes back down to the river: towers, ramparts and views over the valley. Teams note landmarks visible from outside to unlock each stop.
Victor Hugo and the houses of the town
A literary trail around the house of Victor Hugo: words, inscriptions and signs to note, as far as the Église des Trinitaires. The riddles can be solved without prior knowledge of his work.
A family between the two churches
Children link the Église Saint-Nicolas and the Église des Trinitaires by looking for doorways, steeples and carved stones, with the castle as a backdrop. The route is short and easy to cut down.
Vianden needs a quest. Who will launch it?
Tourist office, local authority
