Looking for a different way to explore Melbourne? Join an interactive treasure hunt winding through the CBD.
Complete challenges, decode riddles and uncover hidden German stories as you make your way through the city. The entire experience is bilingual, with every challenge available in both German and English – so native speakers, German learners and curious locals can all join in.
Come with friends or family or sign up solo and meet new people along the way. The route stays within Melbourne’s Free Tram Zone, although walking is encouraged for the full German Spaziergang experience.
Work together to find the mystery final stop, where prizes await the top team and everyone comes together to celebrate the end of the adventure.
Part of German Week.
