Roman legionnaires came to Baden for the hot springs, Zurich's elite came for the casinos and cures — and the old town between the castle ruin and the river still knows how to entertain.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Baden on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Climb toward Ruine Stein, the fortress ruin watching over the rooftops
• Cross the Kurplatz, heart of the spa quarter fed by 47-degree thermal springs
• Pass beneath the Stadtturm, the painted clock tower guarding the old town
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in German.
By the last clue, Switzerland's original spa town will have warmed you up to its stories.

What to expect
Above the rooftops, Ruine Stein sets the scene: the shattered Habsburg fortress once guarded documents of the entire empire, and the riddles up here come with the best view in town.
Down at the Kurplatz, the trail taps into 2,000 years of spa history — Roman soldiers soaked in these 47-degree springs, and 19th-century Europe followed, building grand hotels around them.
The Stadtturm anchors the old town: a 15th-century gate tower with a painted facade and astronomical clock, full of details the app will quiz you on.
Around 2 hours at an easy pace, with cafés never far away. By the end, Baden's mix of steam and stone will have won you over.
