Lienz Self-Guided City Walking Tour & Scavenger Hunt

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Norwegian and 10 more

Lienz sits where the Dolomites meet the Alps — the town tucked between them has more to show than most visitors realise.

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

• Solve clues at the Liebburg, the Spitalsbrücke, and along the Isel — three stops tracing Lienz from its Renaissance castle to the river that shapes the city
• Start whenever suits you and take all the time you need — no booking slot, no time limit
• Works for families, couples, and friend groups; photo challenges with the Dolomite backdrop tend to get creative

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.

Lienz is best known as a gateway to the Dolomites — the trail is a reason to stay in the town itself.

What to expect

Your trail begins in the centre of Lienz. Open the Explorial app, enter your 6-digit game code that you received by text and Viator chat message, select German or English, and tap Start.

The trail takes you through Lienz's compact old town, set against the East Tyrolean Alps. The Liebburg — the Renaissance castle that now serves as the town hall — features early with a riddle that sends you into the courtyard details most visitors walk straight through. The Spitalsbrücke, the old bridge over the Isel, features in a photo challenge that makes the most of the mountain views upstream. The Isel itself — the glacial river through the heart of Lienz — is the setting for an observation task that asks you to look at the riverbank carefully. The old town is small; there's no pressure to rush.

Groups tend to slow down once they notice how much better the photos are with the Dolomites in the background.

The app reveals final scores and a ranking when the last task is done. Lienz is one of the most scenic small towns in Austria; the trail is the best excuse to explore it properly.
