Starting point of the adventure
The perfect kick-off for this team building event in Schwäbisch Gmünd is at the Holy Cross Minster, a central and striking landmark. From there, routes wind through narrow alleys and past unexpected corners waiting to be discovered. If another meeting spot in the old town suits the group better, the start can be relocated to match specific needs, making the company outing flexible and tailored to the team.
During the Scavenger Hunt, teams will encounter some of Schwäbisch Gmünds most notable sights. The Holy Cross Minster commands attention with its soaring presence, while the Königsturm and Glockenturm Schwäbisch Gmünd stand as proud reminders of the citys medieval defenses. The Stauferfries offers a glimpse into the glory days of the Staufer era, and churches such as Johanniskirche Schwäbisch Gmünd, Prediger, Augustinerkirche Schwäbisch Gmünd, St. Franziskus and St. Loreto add architectural variety. Even the Stadtarchiv Schwäbisch Gmünd holds stories that can become part of the teams puzzle trail. These landmarks create a backdrop where historical depth meets modern, brain-teasing challenges.
Team building through creativity and cooperation
The Scavenger Hunt is designed to highlight each team members strengths. Tasks reward logical thinking, inventive problem solving and clear communication, giving everyone a chance to contribute and grow. As groups collaborate to crack the clues, the importance of teamwork becomes strikingly clear — this team building experience is both a stimulating challenge and an opportunity to refine the ways the team works together.
Culinary delights and local stories
A company outing in Schwäbisch Gmünd is incomplete without sampling regional flavors. After a day of discovery, teams can relax in one of the cozy local restaurants to enjoy traditional dishes and share highlights from the route. Conversations with locals and a peek into the citys traditions enrich the experience, turning the day into a memorable blend of culture, history and good food that will linger long after the event.
An unforgettable company summer party
