Treasure Hunt Helmstedt
The charm of Helmstedt really shines during a team building event with a twist. Imagine colleagues plunging into an experience that blends history, puzzles and collaboration into one memorable outing. Welcome to the CityHunters treasure hunt, a team building experience in Helmstedt designed to stretch creativity and strengthen team spirit.
Discover the hidden treasures of Helmstedt
The journey begins at the Former university library of Helmstedt, where teams pick up the CityHunters app and a smartphone and set off to unravel the town’s secrets. Strolling through streets that once buzzed with scholarly debate, participants will pass the Juleum and the Hausmannsturm, tracing the footsteps of past academics while solving clues and collecting hints that lead onward.
A team building experience that brings people together
The treasure hunt is more than just a game — it’s a chance for colleagues to learn how their individual strengths fit into a bigger picture. While some team members crack tricky puzzles, others spot concealed clues or connect disparate facts to move the mission forward. This team building experience encourages better communication and cooperation, helping groups bond while creating lasting memories.
Helmstedt — the perfect backdrop for your team building event
With its rich past and abundant landmarks, Helmstedt offers an ideal stage for a team building event. The St.-Stephani-Kirche will impress with its gothic presence, the Türkentor stands as a proud city emblem, and nearby churches such as St.-Thomas-Kirche, St. Walpurgis and St.-Christophorus add layers of history to the route. These sites aren’t mere scenery; they are woven into the treasure hunt, guiding teams through the town’s lanes. Whether planned as a company outing or a department celebration, the experience will exceed expectations.
Flexibility and a spirit of adventure combined
One of the great advantages of the CityHunters treasure hunt is its flexibility. Teams can start whenever it suits them and proceed at their own pace, making it an easy-to-fit activity for busy schedules. Ideal as a highlight for a company summer party or as a standalone team building event, the route also takes in the Lübbensteine, one of the region’s oldest landmarks, offering a direct encounter with local history.
An unforgettable company outing
A company outing to Helmstedt becomes unforgettable with the CityHunters treasure hunt. The mix of history, puzzles and teamwork gives colleagues the chance to see one another in new roles and to grow together.
