Scavenger Hunt Leicester

+ Show more - Show less

Welcome to Ratae Corieltavorum! Didn't know it yet? This is the former Roman name for what is now Leicester. It was founded under this name almost 2,000 years ago. Since then, a lot has happened here in the East Midlands on the River Soar. The best way to find out how the city presents itself in the 21st century is on a scavenger hunt in Leicester. As part of a team, you will roam the streets of the city, solve tricky challenges and get to know Leicester from a completely new perspective.

Scavenger hunt in Leicester around the Clock Tower

The Leicester scavenger hunt takes you right into the heart of the bustling city. The Clock Tower is located almost right in the center of the city and can be seen from many places around it. It is something like the most important meeting point in the city, as five streets lead from here to the surrounding districts. The pedestrian zone with its many stores, cafés and pubs also runs right past the Clock Tower. It winds its way through the city center, which has many more sights to offer. Would you like to see as many of them as possible? Then go on a scavenger hunt together in Leicester.

It's very simple: gather at the starting point with your tickets and log into the app. First, you decide who will be your game leader. They will receive the GPS navigation on their smartphone and guide you from station to station. Good to know: The route is specially designed so that you get to see lots of different famous buildings and places.

Once the game master has been determined, you assign the other roles. Each of you takes on a function, for example as a photographer or linguistic genius. Depending on your role, you will receive bonus tasks on your smartphone. While your personal commitment is required, the stations are all about teamwork. If you combine your talents, you are sure to master every challenge of the scavenger hunt in Leicester. We can reveal this much: The tasks require very different skills. Were you able to solve every tricky puzzle? Then you're sure to have earned a top spot in our leaderboard - check it out in the app now.

Scavenger hunt as a city exploration in Leicester

The Leicester scavenger hunt is an exciting competition with other teams who have already tried their luck in the city. But it's not just about correct answers and points. The scavenger hunt is a unique team experience where you get to know one of England's oldest cities.

As mentioned, Leicester was founded by the Romans, who in turn conquered a Celtic settlement. However, hardly any relics of these two cultures have survived. This is also due to the fact that although settlement took place thousands of years ago, a real upswing did not occur until industrialization. Boosted by the railroad connection and a canal, the town developed into a center of shoe and jersey production in the course of the 19th century. Parallel to the industrial plants, the town center also grew, with houses built primarily in the Victorian style. Even today, they form a picturesque "typically English" backdrop for your Leicester scavenger hunt.

You will also find Leicester Cathedral right in the heart of the city. The first mention of the monument dates back to 1086, but the foundation stone was laid much earlier. It is well worth taking a look inside. The colorful east window and the historic organ are particularly worth seeing.

Discover the culinary specialties of Leicester

With so many discoveries to make during your Leicester scavenger hunt, you're sure to work up an appetite for a regional specialty. Then we recommend a trip to Leicester Market. The largest covered open-air market in Europe - that is, the stalls are covered, but the busy paths are not - has a tradition that goes back deep into the Middle Ages. Even today, goods from regional cultivation as well as from all over the world are offered here. A real local delicacy is Red Leicester, a mature cheese that resembles cheddar but surpasses it in flavor and color.

Of course, there are also British classics such as fish and chips on offer and - as the city is famous for - many excellent Indian restaurants. To round off your scavenger hunt in Leicester, take a stroll through Abbey Park and visit the New Walk Museum & Art Gallery.
