If you want to truly experience Merano – with heart-pounding excitement, team spirit, and plenty of aha moments – then a Scavenger Hunt Merano by myCityHunt is just the thing for you. Imagine strolling through winding arcades, solving tricky puzzles in front of the imposing Kurhaus di Merano, and discovering stories no guidebook knows. Sounds good? Then read on – because here you'll find everything you need to know about the digital Scavenger Hunt Merano!

How does the Scavenger Hunt in Merano work?

The Scavenger Hunt through Merano by myCityHunt is as simple as it is ingenious. You don't need any complicated equipment, no preparation, and no guide breathing down your neck. All you need is your smartphone, the myCityHunt app from the App Store or Google Play Store, and a good dose of adventure spirit. Here's how it works:

  1. Download the app and book your ticket: Download the myCityHunt app from your app store and book your ticket conveniently via the website mycityhunt.de. Then load the ticket into your wallet within the app.
  2. Configure the tour: The ticket holder sets the number of players, the number of teams, the desired tour, and the language. After that, a Lobby QR code appears in the app.
  3. Invite participants: All other participants simply scan the QR code, join the lobby, and choose their team.
  4. Choose your role: Each player takes on an individual role – whether photographer, detective, or adventurer. During the game, you'll receive challenges that perfectly match your role.
  5. Start together: Once everyone is ready, you start the tour, and the GPS navigation guides you safely through the streets and squares of Merano.

Which station do you head to first? You decide! On the interactive map, you can see all the stations spread across the city area. On-site, you'll receive your current task directly in the app. Now it's time to: keep your eyes open, combine, and solve puzzles together. For each solved task, you earn points – and at the end, you can compete with teams from all over the world in the high score!

Good to know

You don't need any prior knowledge about Merano to master the scavenger hunt. The app guides you step by step and provides you with all the necessary information. Still, it doesn't hurt to keep your eyes open – because often the crucial clues are hidden directly on buildings, statues, or inscriptions nearby!

What to expect on a Scavenger Hunt in Merano

Merano is not just any city. Merano is a living open-air museum, a place where alpine tradition and southern ease magically connect. And that's exactly what makes the Scavenger Hunt Merano so special: you're not just exploring sights – you're experiencing them in a completely new way.

Which sights will you encounter on the tour?

The route takes you past some of the most fascinating places in Merano. You'll discover corners you might otherwise walk past without noticing. Here's a little taste of what awaits you:

  • Chiesa di San Nicolò: The Gothic parish church with its distinctive tower is the landmark of Merano's old town and holds many secrets.
  • Castello Principesco: The late medieval princely castle in the middle of the city – compact but full of history.
  • Kurhaus di Merano: The magnificent Art Nouveau building on the Passer Promenade is an architectural masterpiece and an absolute highlight.
  • Museo delle Donne: The Women's Museum tells stories that are not in any standard travel guide – surprising and inspiring.
  • Chiesa di Santo Spirito: The Holy Spirit Church impresses with its Gothic frescoes and special atmosphere.
  • Teatro Civico: Merano's city theater – a cultural jewel that impresses even from the outside.
  • Cappella di Santa Barbara: Small but exquisite – this chapel surprises with its hidden beauty.

But the Scavenger Hunt Merano offers far more than mere sightseeing. Between the stations, exciting puzzles, creative photo challenges, and fun team tasks await you, which will bond you as a group. You'll learn fascinating anecdotes about the spa town, its famous guests – from Empress Sisi to Franz Kafka – and the culinary specialties of South Tyrol.

Especially noteworthy

Did you know that Merano was already considered a spa resort of European nobility in the 19th century? Empress Elisabeth of Austria, better known as Sisi, spent several winters here. On your scavenger hunt through Merano, you'll find out what traces she left in the city – and where you can still follow in her footsteps today!

More than just facts: Experiences that stay in memory

What sets the Scavenger Hunt Merano apart from a classic city tour? You're not a passive listener; you're right in the middle of the action. You search, puzzle, laugh, and marvel. You photograph details at the Chiesa di San Vigilio that you would never have noticed otherwise. You discuss with your team whether the answer to a tricky question about the Chiesa di San Giorgio is A or B. And you celebrate every solved clue as if you had just unearthed a treasure. This is experiencing Merano – with all your senses!

Why is Merano the perfect setting for a Scavenger Hunt?

Honestly: Merano has everything a memorable Scavenger Hunt needs. The city is compact enough to explore comfortably on foot and at the same time diverse enough to keep surprising you. Here, medieval arcades meet elegant Art Nouveau architecture, blooming promenades meet rustic wine taverns, and alpine mountain scenery meets Mediterranean palms. This unique interplay makes the City Game Scavenger Hunt Merano an experience you won't forget anytime soon.

So why a Scavenger Hunt in Merano? Here are the main reasons at a glance:

  • Flexibility: You start whenever you want – morning, noon, evening. There are no fixed times and no guide to wait for.
  • Your own pace: You set the pace. Want to enjoy a cappuccino on the Passer Promenade or make a detour to a wine shop? No problem – the app waits patiently for you.
