Urban Hunt is a combination of an escape room and geocaching. Work together with your teammates and devise a clever strategy to uncover secrets, crack cryptic clues and beat other teams to the punch. Only then can you solve the assignments scattered throughout the city centre of Ypres. Historical, cultural and interesting facts about Ypres, drone images, manipulated photos, mysterious sound clips, drawings of historical figures and South African instructions make this a unique experience. The competition between the teams is fuelled by a live scoreboard and statistics afterwards.
