Xmas Adventure Marburg
Experience the festive season in a fresh way with the CityHunters Xmas Adventure in Marburg. This distinctive team building event guides groups through the historic streets as they crack puzzles, uncover stories and soak up the holiday atmosphere. Equipped with the CityHunters app on smartphones, teams can kick off at the picturesque Marktplatz, Markt 11-8, or any other central starting point. The result is a memorable team building experience in Marburg with just the right hint of seasonal sparkle.
A festive challenge awaits
The Xmas Adventure opens with a mysterious treasure map left by an anonymous benefactor. That map points to a hidden prize that only the team able to solve clever riddles and read festive clues will locate. The decorated streets of Marburg make an ideal stage for this team building event. Along the way, discover St. Elisabeth's Church with its impressive Gothic presence, and draw inspiration from its soaring architecture before tackling the next challenge.
Exploring Marburg's history together
The Xmas Adventure is more than a Scavenger Hunt; it is a team-paced tour through Marburg’s rich history and culture. Ascend to Marburger Schloss for sweeping views as teams prepare for the next task, then wander through sights like the Alter Botanischer Garten Marburg and the Chapel St. Michael (Marburg) to deepen the sense of place. Each location reinforces the themes of resilience and cooperation that the team building experience aims to foster, with challenges designed to promote communication, creativity and collaboration so every member can play to their strengths.
The perfect backdrop for your team building event
Marburg’s charming old town, full of winding lanes and historic facades, provides a unique atmosphere for the Xmas Adventure. Between challenges, teams can sample local culinary treats such as the famed Marburger Lebkuchen. A company outing to Marburg becomes an unforgettable occasion that tightens bonds and recharges the group for future tasks, whether the day also includes a visit to the Hessian State Archives of Marburg, the Museum anatomicum or a quiet moment at the Marburg University Library.
Flexibility and independence
One of the key benefits of the CityHunters Xmas Adventure is flexibility. Start times and pacing can be tailored to fit any schedule, and the event works well as a department celebration, a company summer party or a company outing. This team building experience can be easily combined with other activities, from browsing a Christmas market to enjoying a shared dinner. The self-guided format lets teams solve challenges at their own pace and explore highlights like the University Church of Marburg, Alte Universität Marburg or the Mineralogical Museum of the Philipps-University on their own terms.
