Treasure Hunt Giessen
Experience a different kind of adventure and let the city of Giessen work its charm. With the CityHunters team building experience in Giessen, colleagues become modern treasure hunters. Armed with the clever CityHunters app and a healthy dose of team spirit, groups set off on a treasure hunt that fuses curiosity, history, and collaboration into an unforgettable outing ideal for a company outing, a department celebration, or a company summer party.
Starting point: Kreuzplatz 2 – the beginning of an exciting journey
The adventure kicks off at Kreuzplatz 2, right in the centre of Giessen. From there the CityHunters app guides teams along winding streets and lively squares, past landmarks that tell the city’s story. Marvel at the stage and façade of Theater Giessen, pass the stately buildings of the University of Giessen, and drop by the Liebig Museum to glimpse the scientific heritage that shaped the town. This treasure hunt is more than a team building event in Giessen; it’s a short stroll through layers of local history.
Riddles and challenges around every corner
This treasure hunt is not just a leisurely walk. It’s an interactive challenge that asks teams to solve puzzles and piece clues together. Routes often lead to the Botanischer Garten Giessen, where plant diversity provides both a scenic backdrop and a calming moment between brainteasers, and to the Mathematikum, where a love of puzzles meets mathematical wonder. The mix of nature and mental gymnastics keeps the pace lively and the experience varied.
Teamwork that connects
Finding the treasure relies on teamwork. Each participant brings strengths to the table, whether cracking a tricky riddle or spotting a hidden hint. That collaboration strengthens bonds and sharpens communication. Along the way the group might pause on the Fußgängerplattform am Selterstor for a panoramic view or explore a quaint café to sample regional flavours that add an extra layer to this team building event in Giessen.
