Blueberry Orienteering

On Sunday November 22nd we're organising a special event: an afternoon of Orienteering, our own outdoor adventure game, in the forest by the Festspielhügel in Bayreuth. You play in teams of two, and everyone is welcome, beginners included.

Orienteering is part treasure hunt, part puzzle and part race. With a map and a list of coordinates, you and your teammate head into the woods to track down 15 hidden checkpoints. Each one has a riddle waiting for you, and every correct answer gets you closer to victory. But you're not alone out there: the other teams are hunting for the same boxes, and the clock is ticking. Will you go for the nearest checkpoint, or risk the long way for more points? Run, think, argue about the map and laugh when you find a box. That's what this game is all about.

No experience is needed: we'll explain everything at the start, and you'll get the hang of the map in no time. Watch the video for a quick introduction, or read all about the game on our Orienteering page.

How it works

Your team gets a map and a list of coordinates. Find the hidden checkpoints, solve the riddle at each one and write your answer on your map. You have two hours: find as many boxes as you can, solve as many riddles as you can, and get back to the start before time runs out. The team with the most points wins.

Everything you need for the game is provided. And of course, there will be prizes!

Teams

You play in teams of two. Everyone signs up individually, so if you're coming with a friend, you each book your own spot. Coming alone? No problem: we'll pair you up with another solo player at the start. It's a great way to meet someone new. Others slow you down? You want to play solo? Also a valid option!

Schedule – Sunday, 22 November
