Description

Context The family scavenger hunt in Cuenca takes place in the historic city center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and nearby natural areas such as Buendía and Belmonte. The city, home to landmarks like the Hanging Houses and the San Pablo Bridge, offers a unique backdrop where history and nature intertwine. The activity combines urban, water-based, and adventure elements, carefully adapted for all ages and with low to moderate difficulty levels.

The Experience You begin with a brief introduction and distribution of materials to solve riddles throughout the historic district, where the scent of thyme mingles with the echo of footsteps on stone. Next, in Buendía, you face light physical challenges in nature, listening to the whisper of wind through trees. The water-based segment adds fun, team-building games to encourage family cooperation. Finally, at a local winery, you enjoy a guided wine tasting, where the aroma of ripe grapes and aged wood complements the explanation of local grape varieties and food pairings.

For Whom Ideal for families with children from age 8, small groups interested in culture and adventure, and adults who value light physical activity combined with local cuisine. Not suitable for individuals with limited mobility unless specific adaptations are available, or for those unable to perform light physical activity.

Local Context Cuenca preserves its historical and viticultural traditions, with local bodegas sharing their heritage during each tasting. The local community actively participates in organizing the event, ensuring an authentic and personal experience.
