e-Scavenger Hunt Stockholm: Explore the City at Your Own Pace

Uncover Stockholm's hidden gems through a fun, interactive city game — on your schedule, at your speed.


The Stockholm e-scavenger hunt transforms the Swedish capital into a living puzzle, inviting visitors to navigate its iconic streets, squares, and waterfront through a smartphone-based city game. This self-guided format lets you move freely through one of Scandinavia's most storied capitals without the pressure of a fixed itinerary.

Using a free app and GPS navigation, participants locate landmarks, answer location-based questions, and complete discovery assignments across Stockholm's most rewarding neighborhoods. The experience suits solo travelers, couples, families, and large groups equally well.

Stockholm's layered history — from the medieval cobblestones of Gamla Stan to the grand boulevards of Östermalm — provides a rich backdrop for every challenge. The game surfaces facts and stories that most visitors walk past without noticing.

Tour Highlights

Play a fully smartphone-based city game using GPS to find landmarks and complete assignments across Stockholm.

Start, pause, or stop the tour at any time — the experience runs entirely on your own schedule with no fixed departure.

Navigate through Gamla Stan's cobbled alleys, Djurgården's museum island, and the elegant Strandvägen boulevard.

A family-friendly activity that works equally well for small groups, large gatherings, and team outings of any size.

Discover lesser-known facts about Stockholm's Royal Palace, the Vasa Museum, and the city's historic waterways.

Explore hidden passages such as Mårten Trotzigs gränd and the scenic canals that earned Stockholm its Venice of the North reputation.

Itinerary Overview

1
Gamla Stan — The Old Town

Begin in Stockholm's medieval heart, where 17th- and 18th-century buildings line narrow cobblestone lanes. Stortorget, the central square featuring a fountain marking global distances, anchors the neighborhood.

2
Stockholm City Hall and Royal Palace

Explore the National Romantic landmark designed by Ragnar Östberg, completed in 1923. Continue to the Royal Palace, the King's official residence and one of Europe's largest working palaces.

3
Storkyrkan and Mårten Trotzigs Gränd

Visit Stockholm's oldest church, built in Brick Gothic style within Gamla Stan. Nearby, the narrow alley of Mårten Trotzigs Gränd offers one of the most photographed passages in the old town.

4
Djurgården and the Vasa Museum

Head to the tranquil island of Djurgården, home to the maritime museum housing the Vasa — the only fully intact 17th-century warship in the world. The island also contains the Skansen open-air museum.

5
Strandvägen and the Stockholm Canals

Walk along the grand Strandvägen boulevard in Östermalm, completed for the 1897 Stockholm World's Fair. The surrounding canals illustrate why the city earned its comparison to Venice.
