Xmas Adventure Besançon
Winter in Besançon brings a picturesque dusting of snow and the perfect moment for an unforgettable team building experience. The CityHunters Xmas Adventure invites teams to rediscover the historic streets in a fresh way. Packed with puzzles, small challenges and a festive atmosphere, this company outing in Besançon will leave a lasting impression. Let the city work its seasonal charm while teamwork and holiday spirit blend into something memorable.
Experience the Magic of the Citadel of Besançon
Start the yuletide exploration near Besançon Cathedral or another central meeting point and dive into the citys rich history. The Citadel of Besançon, a masterpiece of military architecture, offers sweeping views and makes an ideal launchpad for a team building event. As clues are solved and hints deciphered, the group will weave through narrow lanes and historic squares that whisper tales of Besançons past.
History and Secrets of Porte Noire
The imposing Porte Noire, a Roman triumphal arch, is another standout on the route. Here the past comes into sharp relief while teams uncover the stories locked in its stones. This spot serves as an excellent setting for a team building experience that emphasizes clear communication and close collaboration. Let the monument’s history inspire fresh connections among colleagues.
Culinary Treats and Cultural Highlights
Besançon is celebrated not only for its landmarks but also for its gastronomic delights. During the company outing, sampling local specialties can be a well-earned reward after a tricky puzzle. A bite of famous Comté cheese or a sip of Jura wine makes for a satisfying finish. The city offers many chances to top off a department celebration or a company summer party with a delicious local touch.
Victor Hugo and the Cultural Heritage
No route through Besançon would be complete without a pause at the Birthhouse of Victor Hugo. Even though the CityHunters Xmas Adventure unfolds outdoors, the cultural significance of this site can be admired from the outside and serve as a moment of reflection. This stop on the team building event provides an opportunity to appreciate the power of creativity and the role of storytelling in bringing teams together.
