The CityHunters Xmas Adventure offers a chance to soak up the winter charm of the city while boosting team spirit.

A city of history and hidden gems
Herford blends centuries-old landmarks with surprising modern touches, creating an ideal backdrop for a team building experience. Along the way, the route leads past MARTa Herford, whose contemporary architecture and art installations provide striking photo stops. Herford Abbey recalls the town’s medieval importance, while the Herforder Münster and the churches of St. Jacobi and St. Johannis showcase the city’s architectural depth. Cultural highlights such as the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie and the Hochschule für Kirchenmusik der Evangelischen Kirche von Westfalen add musical flair, and the Synagoge Herford and H2O bring further points of interest. These sites offer visual appeal and fascinating stories that enrich every Scavenger Hunt.
Team spirit and seasonal cheer
The Xmas Adventure is more than a game; it’s a structured opportunity for teams to grow in a festive setting. Challenges are designed to encourage clear communication and smooth collaboration while exploring Herford’s decorated streets. Whether groups split into smaller squads or tackle the course as one unit, the focus remains on shared fun and seasonal cheer. This kind of team building event not only entertains but also contributes meaningfully to cohesion and motivation among colleagues.
A company outing to Herford that delights
Planning a company outing or a department celebration and looking for something that will genuinely excite the team? The Xmas Adventure fits neatly into varied schedules and allows flexible start points and pacing. After the Scavenger Hunt, it’s easy to wind down with a visit to a market stall, a relaxed meal in one of Herford’s cozy restaurants, or a stop at H2O for a bit of refreshment. Local culinary specialties provide a hearty finish, and a shared dinner offers a great opportunity to swap highlights from the course.
A company summer party in winter
Who says a company summer party must wait for warm weather? The CityHunters Xmas Adventure brings the playful spirit of a summer party into the winter months, pairing light competition with festive atmosphere. Participants get to collaborate in a relaxed but stimulating environment, revealing strengths and personalities that typical office routines rarely show. This experience not only brightens the holiday season but lays groundwork for stronger teamwork in the year ahead.
