Embark on a treasure hunt off the beaten path along Paris’s Coulée Verte. This hidden greenway follows an old railway line, transformed into a leafy urban walk above the streets.

Our outdoor escape game in Paris is the perfect way to visit Paris differently. Armed with puzzles and observation challenges, you’ll explore surprising spots away from the tourist crowds. It’s one of the most original fun things to do in Paris—ideal for families, friends, or companies looking for creative team building in Paris.

Your mission : crack the code to get to the treasure

To achieve this, you'll be equipped with a game booklet prepared by a former train conductor from the line. Each riddle is independent, so you won’t get stuck. But only those who find all the correct answers can unlock the last code. This format makes it a playful family-friendly activity in Paris, while still being challenging enough for puzzle fans and companies seeking a unique team building in Paris experience.

Highlights Along the Route

  • Old railway tracks and bridges

  • A cave hidden under the greenway

  • A renovated train station

  • A fortress-style garden

  • Sculptures and artistic curiosities

  • Street art gems scattered along the way

  • Buildings cut in half—remnants of urban transformation

Each stop is an opportunity to solve riddles, learn fun facts, and see Paris from a new perspective. In short, enjoy the journey as if you were on a train 😉. And to ensure you don't stray too far, your treasure hunt concludes in the lively Bastille neighborhood.

Practical info - treasure hunt in Paris

  • The hunt takes approximately two hours, with an additional 30 minutes for setup and resolution after the hunt. If you want to take your time, the game can last three hours. Please note that regardless of progress in the treasure hunt, it automatically ends after 3 hours. If participants have not finished by then, we will come to retrieve the equipment wherever they are.

  • The treasure hunt starts next to the metro station Bel Air and ends ends at a different place from the starting point, on Place de la Bastille.

  • Weather Conditions and Cancellation: The Coulée Verte is one of the gardens managed by the city of Paris, which decides on their opening or closure based on weather conditions. In the event of a storm or bad weather, these areas may be closed to ensure everyone's safety. Therefore, we will either offer to reschedule the tour or suggest trying another treasure hunt.

  • The hunts are suitable for ages 8 and up. We recommend this tour for kids aged 8 or older because they must know how to read in order to enjoy the roadbook. Younger kids can join and they will enjoy it but adults may have to help by interpreting the clues.

  • Please bring your own water bottle, even if it's empty! You can fill it up at the many fountains along the greenway. For this tour, we are staying eco-friendly by not providing water bottles
