GPS City Rally in Salzburg – Why here?
Salzburg, the festival city on the Salzach River, enchants with its baroque old town, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. Mozart's birthplace in the Getreidegasse, the imposing Hohensalzburg Fortress and the magnificent cathedral churches make Salzburg one of Europe's most beautiful cities. Located between Mönchsberg and Kapuzinerberg, the Austrian cultural metropolis offers a unique setting for unforgettable team events.
The compact UNESCO World Heritage old town is ideal for a rally on foot. Around 50 challenges lead your team through winding alleys, across baroque squares and along the Salzach River. Knowledge questions about Mozart, logic puzzles, creative team photos – and perhaps Salzburger Nockerln as a reward at the end.
