About this Experience

What you'll do:

You'll race through the streets of Asheville on a competitive scavenger hunt that turns the whole city into your game board, solving puzzles, completing challenges, and racking up points as you go.

  • Explore historic Asheville neighborhoods - Navigate real city streets and discover lesser-known pockets of downtown as part of your route.

  • Solve location-based challenges - Use your surroundings, local landmarks, and a little creativity to earn points for your team.

  • Interact with the city and its people - Some challenges invite you to engage with locals, adding a genuine Asheville flavor to the experience.

  • Compete against other teams or the leaderboard - Choose your level of intensity: race a live opponent or chase a high score on your own timeline.

  • Navigate with a virtual guide - A digital companion walks your group through the hunt step by step, so no one gets lost or left behind.

Whether you're celebrating a bachelorette, a birthday, or just a good excuse to get out, the Asheville scavenger hunt is the rare activity that gets a group moving, laughing, and genuinely competitive.
