How Your Escape the Forest Adventure Works

1

Briefing at the Forest Edge

We meet at the agreed meeting point (hiking parking lot, cable car station or forest entrance). Our guides explain the mission: A mysterious incident in the forest – hidden clues must be found. Teams are divided and equipped with GPS devices.

2

Start of the Forest Adventure

Teams start into the mystical Black Forest. GPS leads to the first hidden station – perhaps at an old tree, under moss or in a rock crevice. There await puzzle boxes, codes and clues. Combine the finds and follow the trail!

3

Solve Puzzles & Crack Codes

Station by station, the GPS trail leads deeper into the forest. Logic puzzles, encrypted messages and team challenges await. Only together can you crack the codes and solve the mystery. The clock is ticking – can you make it in time?

4

Finale & Evaluation

All teams come together at the finish point. We evaluate: Which team completed the mission? Who was fastest? The best moments are shared and the winning team is crowned. Optional: Transition to a meal together at a Black Forest restaurant!
