Prepare for a little bit of walking uphill, but the scenery is worth it, and the story is cute, too, for both adults and children.

The mission: Your story in Barcelona

Your grandmother is the most powerful sorceress but lately she has been sick, getting visions of the future.

Like this one: her evil cousin, second-most powerful sorceress, and the worst, is up to something. She hates children, and in 24 hours, every child in Barcelona will disappear. They’ll roam the earth, but no one will notice them, not even their parents. 

You don’t want to disappear! But your grandma tells you a secret: you also have secret powers, and only you can stop the evil sorceress.

Frequently asked questions

What makes the Montjuïc quest different from a standard city walk?
It turns the route into a fantasy mission: you are the hero facing sorcerers and magical creatures while discovering places around Montjuïc. The route includes uphill sections, so suitable footwear matters.
Is this experience self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you from clue to clue, with no guide or fixed start time. You can begin when it suits you and pause along the way.
How many accesses does our group need?
Classic quests sell access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
