How it works?
Go to the starting point of the Detective-Trail, which is mentioned on the Detective-Trail map (print Detective-Trail map – see “Order Detective-Trails”) or in the app. The first puzzle is already waiting there. Then follow the route descriptions. You will come across mystery posts where a puzzle awaits you. The puzzles you can solve with clues at this location. Additionaly you learn a lot of interesting and surprising facts about the corresponding city and region.
At the end you will find out if you are a master of detective by verifying the code. The verification of the code takes place either with a lock on a treasure chest (small gift in the treasure chest) or an SMS code (small gift with subsequent delivery). The four-digit code is calculated from the solutions of the mysterys.

ALL participants from 6 years of age pay the same amount for the Detective-Trail experience!

How to do a trail with large groups?
If you want to do the trail with large groups (only possible with a printed Detective-Trail map), we recommend forming small groups of approx. 5 people. Each group starts one after the other in small time intervals (approx. 5-10 min.).
Print version in the shop
The different Detective-Trails can be completed with the help of a printed Detective-Trail map or in the app (see below). You can choose for how many people you want to buy the Detective-Trail card. Example map Detective-Trails: Example of a Detective-Trail map (in german).
A purchase of a Detective-Trail map in the webshop cannot be transferred to the app!
For some trails, the Detective-Trail map can be purchased at a local sales point (see information at the respective trail).
