Brains, teamwork and GPS will get you there!
Off on a shared adventure! But don’t rush in – this takes serious teamwork. Armed with a backpack, a walkie-talkie and, of course, a GPS device, you and your team set off to take on a whole string of challenges. Hiking boots through the undergrowth or leather shoes through the urban jungle? That’s entirely up to you, of course.
Split into several teams, you and your colleagues all set off at the same time on our exciting geocaching event. The tricky waypoints along the set route will really put your teams through their paces: to move on, they have to find various hiding places (caches), for example. You’ll also tackle puzzles about your surroundings and demanding team challenges.
Anyone who wants to reach the end of the journey needs the right kit. That’s why your expedition backpack is packed with useful things. Alongside optional refreshments – drinks, fresh fruit and cereal bars – you’ll find a few faithful companions: a compass, a first-aid kit and a walkie-talkie. The walkie-talkie is essential for communicating between teams and for solving some of the puzzles.
The heart of your kit, though, is the GPS device together with your personal GPS guide. These tools show you the way with clear coordinates that lead you from checkpoint to checkpoint. What awaits you there, however, you’ll have to find out for yourselves!

How GPS-Rallye works
You and your colleagues are first split at random into several expedition teams. Once we’ve talked you through the technical details and how to use the GPS devices, the adventure can begin. All teams set off at the same time, but you’ll go your separate ways sooner than you’d think. Your route is a kind of circuit – the start and finish of the GPS-Rallye are the same. So at the first fork, some go left and others right – perhaps you’ll meet in the middle.
Press bravely on and follow the coordinates in your GPS guide correctly, and you’ll soon reach the first waypoint. All sorts of things could be waiting there for you and your team: a hidden object with important information, a puzzle about the surroundings for anyone with a sharp eye and local knowledge, or even our team. That’s where a proper team task awaits you.
Eventually, you’ve made it through the adventure and reached the finish. We’ll be there to welcome you back, and we’ll enjoy looking back on the adventure together. Only one team can end up on the podium, of course, but in the end everybody’s a winner.
An outdoor adventure that puts the excitement into team building
Over hill and dale, or through the urban jungle
We can plan your GPS-Rallye around what you want and need. Whether along green farm tracks and through idyllic woods or right through the bustling shopping streets of the city – we’ll design your route exactly where you want it.
Everything in the pack
Alongside the GPS device and guide, every team has a compass, walkie-talkie and first-aid kit in their backpack. That leaves you well prepared for whatever comes up. For night-time outings we add plenty of torches. On request, we can also add refreshments to your pack – drinks, fruit and cereal bars give you the energy for the last few kilometres.
What’s coming next?
Navigating from one waypoint to the next can be a challenge in itself. But on our scavenger hunt, plenty more varied challenges await the teams. There’s something exciting in store for every puzzle fan, explorer, adventurer and athlete. And there’s plenty of team spirit along the way, of course.

Frequently asked questions about GPS-Rallye
How does the GPS-Rallye work?
Once everyone has been split into teams at random, we show you how to use the GPS devices. The teams then set off at the same time on a circular route, following coordinates from waypoint to waypoint and solving puzzles and team challenges along the way. Back at the finish – which is also the start – we look back on the adventure together and crown the winning team.
Is the GPS-Rallye a geocaching event?
Yes – the GPS-Rallye is a treasure hunt with GPS devices in the style of geocaching. Teams search for hidden caches, crack location-based puzzles and tackle team challenges along the way. We plan the route individually for your group.
Will we get an introduction to the GPS devices?
Yes – before the start, we show everyone the technical details and how to use the GPS devices, right there on site. Sturdy footwear matters: whether that means hiking boots for the undergrowth or leather shoes for the urban jungle depends on your route.
What’s in the expedition backpack?
Each team gets a backpack with a GPS device, GPS guide, compass, walkie-talkie and first-aid kit. For night-time tours, we add plenty of torches. On request, we also pack drinks, fruit and cereal bars.
Where does the GPS-Rallye take place?
Wherever you’d like: we design your route individually – along field paths, through woods and parks or right through a city’s shopping streets. Start and finish are in the same place, so you end up where you began.
How long does the GPS-Rallye take, and how many people is it suitable for?
Allow from 2.5 hours. The GPS-Rallye suits groups of 20 to 250 people, whom we split into several expedition teams.
