How does a
Scavenger Hunt
work?
1. Meeting in the heart of Düsseldorf's Old Town
We start at the square in front of the Löwenhaus at Liefergasse 9. We’ll welcome you there, briefly explain how everything works, and divide you into small teams depending on the group size. After that, you can head straight out and begin the rally together.
2. You’ll receive your scavenger hunt kit
Each team will receive a rally sheet, a clipboard, and a pen. The sheet contains around 15 tasks, puzzles, and mini-challenges centered on Düsseldorf, the Old Town, and Rhenish culture.
3. Scavenger hunt through Düsseldorf's Old Town
After that, you’ll spend about 1.5 hours exploring on your own in small teams. You’ll search for well-known landmarks, solve puzzles, answer questions, complete small photo challenges, and collect points. For larger groups, different routes ensure that not all teams follow the same path.
4. Finale with awards ceremony and Düsseldorf goodies
At the end, you will all meet back up at a common finish point near the Old Town. There, the results will be evaluated, the winning teams announced, and the top finishers will receive some small Düsseldorf-themed goodies. Afterwards, you can relax and wind down the day in the Old Town.

Düsseldorf City Scavenger Hunt
Our City Scavenger Hunt is ideal for groups that want to explore Düsseldorf actively, playfully and as a team. It is particularly popular with school classes, companies, team events, clubs, birthday groups, groups of friends and youth groups. The activity works for both small and large groups because participants are divided into appropriately sized teams at the meeting point.
The City Scavenger Hunt starts in the square in front of the Löwenhaus at Liefergasse 9. After a short briefing, each team receives a challenge sheet, a clipboard and a pen. Teams then have around 90 minutes to complete a series of challenges across Düsseldorf’s Old Town. Everyone meets our team again at the end for the results and an award ceremony.
The package includes the organization of the city scavenger hunt, an orientation briefing, rally sheets, clipboards, pens, the final evaluation, and small Düsseldorf-themed prizes for the winning teams. The experience combines city discovery, puzzles and team challenges.
Working in small teams, you complete a variety of challenges connected to Düsseldorf, the Old Town and local culture. Depending on the task, you may need to find a particular place, take a photograph, answer a question or solve a short puzzle. The aim is to discover the city together rather than simply follow a guide.
The complete activity lasts approximately two hours. Teams spend around 90 minutes exploring the city independently and completing the challenges. This is followed by the results, an award ceremony and small Düsseldorf-themed prizes for the winning teams.
The City Scavenger Hunt normally starts in the square in front of the Löwenhaus at Liefergasse 9. Depending on the agreed itinerary, it can finish at the Kö-Bogen or at a brewhouse selected for your group.

Yes. The City Scavenger Hunt can be organised for large groups as well as smaller teams. We divide participants into several groups and use different routes so that everyone is not following the same path at the same time. This keeps the activity varied, manageable and well organised.
Our team provides a clear briefing at the beginning and explains the rules and route. During the challenge itself, you explore Düsseldorf’s Old Town independently in small teams. Everyone meets our team again at the end for the results, award ceremony and prizes.
The City Scavenger Hunt mainly takes place outdoors and can go ahead in normal weather conditions. If particularly severe weather is forecast, we will contact you and discuss a suitable solution with your group.
