An Example:
This
is an adventure emulating the famous film
Where
Eagles Dare
Special
incentive programme:
Follow
us on an adventurous treasure hunt with an action packed programme, at the
original scene of the movie!
Concept:
Just
like in the famous movie of the same name, the "AGENTS" are divided up into
small teams (6 to 10 max) and have to find the imprisoned general in the
"German Headquarters". By doing this they have to engage in a series of
action packed exercises, which emulate specific scenes to the movie. Becoming
acquainted with the castle "Hohenwerfen" by going through the experience
of a treasure search from the torture chamber to the bell tower. The competing
teams have to find their way through the castle, led by a roadbook, and
they have to fulfil different activities. In the evening a special agent
dinner will be served in the palace hall, which will be decorated accordingly.
For this special "agent-atmosphere" we recommend the sound of the famous
"Untouchables".
Location:
CASTLE
"HOHENWERFEN" Werfen/Austria (approx. 30 minutes drive south from
the City of Salzburg)
Agenda:
We start
the day with a walk through the woods up to the castle (approx. 15 minutes).
In the courtyard of the castle a special bird show with falcons, buzzards,
owls, eagles and vultures will be presented by a "FALKNER". After
this spectacular show we will serve a welcome drink and the guests will
be officially greeted. HERE THE GUESTS BECOME "AGENTS"! Consequently
they will be organized into teams, we distribute the roadbooks and before
they start with the investigation of the castle in the form of a treasure
hunt they will receive a detailed briefing. On their journey through history
a "Nazi spy", dressed in an original Austrian Dirndl and an "Undercover
Agent" will supply the teams with further information, but they also have
tricky questions about the castle and the movie. A number of difficult lessons
are waiting for the competitors, for example:
-
Air pressure rifle shooting
-
Target throwing with hand grenades (dummies!)
-
LANCE STICKING WITH PADS AND MATS (foam material!)
-
Cable bridge over the fortress wall like Clint Eastwood
-
Rope bridge over the court like Richard Burton
Dinner:
Agent
dinner with live music (our suggestion: "THE UNTOUCHABLES") and medal
award for the best agents. We end the evening with a romantic tour with
torches down to the valley!
Additional
Programme (optional):
CANYONING
