What to expect

Your trail begins in the centre of Lienz. Open the Explorial app, enter your 6-digit game code that you received by text and Viator chat message, select German or English, and tap Start. The trail takes you through Lienz's compact old town, set against the East Tyrolean Alps. The Liebburg — the Renaissance castle that now serves as the town hall — features early with a riddle that sends you into the courtyard details most visitors walk straight through. The Spitalsbrücke, the old bridge over the Isel, features in a photo challenge that makes the most of the mountain views upstream. The Isel itself — the glacial river through the heart of Lienz — is the setting for an observation task that asks you to look at the riverbank carefully. The old town is small; there's no pressure to rush. Groups tend to slow down once they notice how much better the photos are with the Dolomites in the background. The app reveals final scores and a ranking when the last task is done. Lienz is one of the most scenic small towns in Austria; the trail is the best excuse to explore it properly.
