Gymkana Digital Turística Barcelona

The Digital Tourism Gymkhana is an innovative initiative that invites visitors to discover Barcelona and other Catalan cities through interactive and fun routes. These digital gymkhanas are designed to promote sustainable and decentralized tourism, bringing cultural and historical heritage closer to visitors and residents in a fun and educational way.

Discover Barcelona through digital gymkhanas

Digital treasure hunts offer tourist and cultural routes in game format, accessible completely free of charge and without the need to download an app. Simply scan a QR code with your mobile phone or access the official website. The routes are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and can be completed in several languages, including Catalan, Spanish, French, and English.  

In Barcelona, treasure hunts have been held in several neighborhoods, including Bon Pastor, Hostafrancs, Sant Genís de los Agudells, La Guineueta, Les Corts, Sant Martín de Provençals, and the Eixample district. These routes last approximately 60 to 90 minutes and cover a distance of about 1.5 kilometers, with a maximum of 14 puzzles to solve.

An experience for all ages

Digital treasure hunts are designed for a wide audience, from families with children to groups of friends or individual tourists. The combination of play and learning allows participants to learn about the history and heritage of Barcelona's neighborhoods in an interactive and entertaining way. Furthermore, these routes encourage active participation and the discovery of lesser-known corners of the city.
