Self-guided city games in Ljubljana
World City Trail’s self-guided games in Slovenia are in Ljubljana, the capital, which has all three: a scavenger hunt with a riddle at each stop, an outdoor escape game with a puzzle at every landmark, and an audio walking tour without puzzles.
The route starts at the Ursuline Church on Congress Square and passes the University, the Town Hall and St Nicholas Cathedral. From the Vodnik Monument by the Central Market it crosses the Dragon Bridge and the Butchers’ Bridge to the Franciscan Church, Prešeren Square and the Triple Bridge: about 2.2 km on foot.

Why explore Ljubljana with a self-guided city game
A self-guided scavenger hunt is one of the easiest things to do in Ljubljana without a guide: the old town along the Ljubljanica river is compact and largely car-free. Much of it was shaped by the architect Jože Plečnik, whose works in the city, including the Triple Bridge and the Central Market, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Compared with a guided tour, you choose the start time, the pace and the order of the stops, with time for a riverside café. The riddles make you look closely at sculptures, façades and bridge details, and the stories explain them.
- Start in the morning or late afternoon, when the riverbanks are quieter.
- Wear comfortable shoes for the cobbled old town.
- Start the escape game in daylight; its route is longer, with about an hour of walking.
- Every stop is seen from outside, so you need no entry tickets.
