You arrive at the Stausee Hohenfelden on a cool morning; the lake’s surface sits like a quiet witness while the trail tugs you into a story. The game’s app pings in German, and suddenly the shoreline becomes a crime scene, witnesses are characters you’ll meet, and every bench, boathouse and footbridge could hold a clue.
The reservoir itself is 20th-century infrastructure—part of Thuringia’s network of managed lakes used for recreation and flood control—and the route circles woodland, meadow and small settlements that speak to local agricultural history. Geologically the area rides low rolling hills of sedimentary rock and glacial deposits; footpaths switch from compacted gravel to forest mulch, with only minor elevation change.
Culturally the walk passes small village architecture and lakeside leisure spots popular with families from nearby towns; the interactive plot leans on a fictional treasure legend and ghost-hunter lore, a playful nod to regional storytelling traditions.
Practically: plan for roughly three hours of walking and sleuthing (about 5–7 km depending on detours), mostly flat terrain, and bring a charged smartphone with data and German language support—the app runs the experience. Wear sturdy shoes; expect exposed sections on sunny days and twiggy, damp ground after rain. The game suits small teams (2–6). Hydrate, download the app before you start, and allow extra time to pause at viewpoints—kingfishers and deer sometimes break the scene, as if nature wants to be part of the investigation.
The app and narrative are in German—non-German speakers should use a translation app or join a German-speaking team.
The experience is designed to take about three hours, depending on group pace and time spent on clues or breaks.
No—paths are mostly flat and suitable for people of average mobility; children over 12 can participate with adults.
Yes—download or install the required app before arrival and ensure location and notifications are enabled for the best experience.
