Grenoble is ringed by Alps, powered by innovation, and full of history most visitors are too distracted by the mountains to notice.

This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Grenoble on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.

• Follow clues to the Passerelle Saint-Laurent, the Fontaine des trois ordres, and Place Victor Hugo — bridges, fountains, and revolutionary history • Go at your own pace through one of France's most underrated cities • Suits groups of all sizes looking for an active way to explore

Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size.

Worth every metre of elevation it took to get here.

What you'll do

Starting at Jardin de Ville, 38000 Grenoble, France, open the Explorial app and
enter the 6-digit game code that you received by text and Viator chat message. The riddles lead you across Grenoble's historic centre, from riverbank to revolutionary square. Your first stop is the Passerelle Saint-Laurent, a footbridge spanning the Isère with views of the old city and the mountains closing in on all sides — Grenoble's geography laid out in one glance. From there the app takes you to the Fontaine des trois ordres, a fountain commemorating the 1788 Day of Tiles, when Grenoble's citizens threw roof tiles at royal troops in one of the first acts of resistance leading to the French Revolution. The route concludes at Place Victor Hugo, a grand leafy square at the heart of the modern city — part civic gathering ground, part elegant promenade. Around 2 hours on foot. The app works whatever the weather, and Grenoble has no shortage of excellent spots to stop for coffee along the way.
