Salzburg: Scavenger hunt for families (self-guided citywalk) Salzburg: self-guided city walk as scavenger hunt for family

Enjoy discovering Mozart's beautiful birthplace, Salzburg, during an entertaining scavenger hunt for curious families with children. WITHOUT smartphone = precious quality time together!
Oh no! The famous composer W.A. Mozart is on his way to the Old Residence to give a concert, when a gust of wind snatches some of his sheets of music out of his hand! Can you help the cute squirrel detective “Pep” to find the swirled sheets, which are scattered all over the city? Moreover, there is a secret note by Mozart himself on his sheets of music, which must also be deciphered... This is the challenge to be solved during this family-friendly city tour/scavenger hunt!

Let's grab your family and follow the predefined route of this scavenger hunt through the magnificent city of Salzburg. It covers both the historic old town and some parts of the new town on the opposite bank of the Salzach. During your family-friendly city walk you will pass the most important sights of the city and you will easily learn a lot of interesting facts about Mozart and his hometown.

You start directly in front of Mozart's birthplace, discover the famous pedestrian zone "Getreidegasse" with its many guild signs, marvel at a large washing plant for horses, walk around the impressive cathedral and study the Mozart monument in the heart of the city. On the opposite bank of the Salzach River, you'll pass a brightly painted house and Mozart's residence. Finally you’ll explore the beautiful Mirabell Garden.

The entire route stretches for about 3 kilometers. The end of the route is about a fifteen-minute walk from the starting point ... a map to easily find your way back to Mozart’s birthplace is included in the materials.
The tour can be paused at any time and continued another time.

Although the route is predefined, you'll have to figure it out first.... by puzzling your way from station to station. The game works completely analog with envelopes, each marked with a number code. Only if you solve the riddles and tasks of one envelope correctly, you will find out with which code envelope the scavenger hunt continues. And in it you’ll find the next tasks ... and so on... until you reach your final destination and the story comes to a happy end!

The tasks are suitable for children who can already handle letters and numbers, younger ones can be helped by parents.

Of course, you can enjoy your scavenger hunt in the closest family circle. But it's more fun in a group! 2-5 children are recommended, accompanied by at least one trusted adult. And please feel free to take grandma and grandpa along as well ... they will surely enjoy quality time together with their grandchildren!

So, let’s discover Salzburg in a fun and educational way during an entertaining scavenger hunt on foot. Solve the tasks at your own pace and admire all the important sights in the venerable town of Salzburg.

No smartphone needed! (Except to take photos and listen to some lovely Mozart music during your walk…)
