An adventure begins in Herdecke
Herdecke, perched along the Ruhr and steeped in history, makes a particularly fitting stage for a team building event. Picture colleagues turned field operatives, charged with a mission of importance and armed with the CityHunters app and a smartphone. The route can lead past the striking Ruhr-Viadukt and weave through lanes that reveal more of the town’s character, turning every clue into a small discovery and every corner into a new chapter of the story.
Unique team dynamics in a historic setting
Throughout the mission, teams will encounter a range of Herdecke landmarks such as Ev. Pfarrkirche Herdecke, Freiherr-vom-Stein-Turm, Herdecker Heimatstube, St. Philippus und Jakobus, Stauwehr Stiftsmühle, Wasserschloß Werdringen, and the Geologischer Aufschluss am Schiffswinkel. These historic and scenic spots provide not just striking backdrops but also moments that encourage shared problem-solving, clear communication, and quick strategy shifts. Each solved riddle brings the team closer together while revealing more of the town’s secrets.
Flexibility and freedom for your team building event

Teams can kick off their mission whenever schedules allow, making it an easy fit for a company outing or an informal department celebration.
