# Outdoor Activity Zwolle

Eager to experience Zwolle actively? Our outdoor games will take you through the historic city center — city games with GPS puzzles, tasks, and team challenges, playable at your own pace.

Zwolle's city center is an open-air stage: canal, Sassenpoort, Peperbus, Rodetorenplein, and surprising alleys. Our outdoor games use this environment as a playground — you'll get to know the city while solving puzzles together. Perfect for groups of friends, family outings, team building, and bachelor parties. Optionally combine with an indoor escape room in case the weather turns, and finish up at the Escape Café.

## Frequently asked questions

### What kind of outdoor activity do you offer?

Outdoor games (city games) with GPS puzzles and challenges through Zwolle's city center. You play independently in teams, at your own pace — no guide accompanying you.

### How long does an outdoor game last?

Expect approximately one and a half to two hours of gameplay. Combining it with drinks or dinner at the Escape Café is popular — then you'll be on the go for half a day.

### What happens in case of bad weather?

Light drizzle is easy to play through. In case of persistent rain, we'll look for an indoor alternative (like an escape room) or reschedule the date in consultation.

### Is an outdoor game suitable for children?

Yes, for children aged 8 and up, accompanied by an adult. Prefer to play indoors? Then our Kids Escape (from 8 years) is a wonderful alternative.
