The Best Scavenger Hunt at Riverwalk Chicago

How Our Riverwalk Scavenger Hunt Works
A cityHUNT scavenger hunt is customized to your goals, group size, date, and timing. We learn what would make the day perfect for you, so we can provide an epic scavenger hunt. We map a route through the Riverwalk districts and nearby blocks that fits your timing. On event day, you use our app to navigate, submit your entries, and watch live scores as you go. We close by reviewing each team’s performance and announcing the hunt winner.




Scavenger Hunt for Interns & New Hires
Team Bonding on the Riverwalk
A Riverwalk scavenger hunt gives interns and new hires a simple way to bond in a setting they’ll remember. Teammates work together to solve riddles, come up with creative solutions, and learn each other’s strengths as they move from bridge to bridge. A scavenger hunt is a fun way to welcome new members to the team in a way that is memorable and low-pressure.
Prompts invite short intros and quick leadership moments without pressure. Photos taken along the way help new team members put names to faces and keep first-week connections alive.

The Chicago Riverwalk is both beautiful and exciting. A scavenger hunt here is great for birthdays, reunions, or just as an addition to a weekend. No matter the ages or size of your group, we will create a scavenger hunt that is fun for everyone.

Field Trip at Chicago Riverwalk
Scavenger Hunt for Schools and Student Groups
The Riverwalk works as an outdoor classroom that can teach lessons on a variety of subjects, including Chicago history, engineering, ecology, and public art. Students observe bridge design up close, connect river cleanup efforts to today’s habitat, and compare architectural styles along the banks. We can customize the scavenger hunt based on your students’ ages and the subject you want to teach.
Prompts ask for names, dates, shapes, or observations so students practice reading their environment as they move. Photos and notes from the hunt make review easy back in class.
