Treasure Hunt Besançon

A hint of adventure drifts through the streets of Besançon, inviting teams to embark on an unforgettable treasure hunt. The CityHunters team building experience in Besançon promises excitement, discovery and a prime opportunity to strengthen group bonds while sharing fresh experiences. Armed with modern smartphones and the CityHunters app, participants follow clues toward a mysterious prize waiting to be uncovered. The city’s historic backdrop adds charm and atmosphere to a team building event in Besançon that will linger in memory long after the day is done.

Discover the treasures of Besançon

Besançon, rich in history and culture, provides an ideal stage for a team building experience. Begin the adventure at Besançon Cathedral or any other central meeting point and set off through winding lanes and grand boulevards. As clues are solved, the treasure hunt leads to some of the city’s most notable sights: the Citadel of Besançon overlooking the skyline, the imposing Porte Noire, the Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie de Besançon, the Birthhouse of Victor Hugo and the atmospheric Besançon amphitheatre, among others. Each stop reveals a slice of local history alongside a fresh puzzle to crack.

Team spirit and adventure united

The treasure hunt quickly makes it clear that teamwork is the secret ingredient. Every clue found and puzzle solved relies on collaboration and clear communication. This team building event highlights individual strengths while knitting the group closer together. Whether planned as a company outing, an interdepartmental celebration or part of a company summer party, the treasure hunt offers an engaging way to boost team dynamics while having a lot of fun.

A city full of stories

Wandering through Besançon delivers both scenic enjoyment and a deep dive into its past. Stops like the Temple du Saint-Esprit, the Synagogue of Besançon and the Bibliothèque municipale de Besançon pepper the route with intriguing anecdotes and cultural context. The route’s stories — including stops at sites tied to the Free Imperial City of Besançon — enrich the treasure hunt and give participants a fuller appreciation of the place. A pause in a cozy café or a local bistro also offers the perfect moment to refuel and savor regional flavors.
