Quebec City is the capital of the province of Quebec, in Canada. It stands on a high cliff above the Saint Lawrence River. People here speak French. The name comes from an Algonquian word, Kebec: it means “where the river narrows”. The Wendat Nation, also called Huron-Wendat, lives today in Wendake, near Quebec City.

Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville

Parc Montmorency
The Parc Montmorency is a park at the top of the cliff, above the lower town. For many years the elected members of the city and the province met here.
Quartier Petit-Champlain
The Quartier Petit-Champlain is a neighbourhood in the lower town, at the foot of the cliff. Its main street is car-free and full of small shops.
Place Royale
Place Royale is the square where Quebec City was born in 1608. Today it is a cobbled corner of the lower town, with stone houses and steep roofs.
The sights along the route
The route crosses Vieux-Québec, the old town protected by UNESCO. It is the only city in North America, north of Mexico, that still has its walls all around it. It passes stone gates, squares and cobbled streets. Then it goes down towards the river, into the lower town. You will discover the rest stop by stop.
There are eight stops and about 2.5 km on foot. You need about three hours of play, plus your breaks. The route goes downhill and has a steep staircase near the end, with a street without steps as an alternative. It does not return to the starting point.
History and culture, lived through play
Every stop tells a piece of history. There are governors, merchants, artists and builders. There are questions about houses and squares, riddles, anagrams and little logic puzzles. The questions are designed for children aged 9 and up and for their parents.
You don't need to know everything already. Many answers are found by looking closely at what is in front of you, others by thinking together. Always cross at the crosswalk when the white walking figure lights up. In winter, stairs and cobblestones can be icy: dress warmly and walk slowly.
An adventure that continues
Once the hunt is over, Quebec City still has a lot to offer families. In winter, snow turns parks and hills into huge playgrounds. Along the river runs a long promenade with lawns and play areas.
Outside the walls there are big parks, lovely in every season. Every neighbourhood has its own story: the next hunt is waiting for you.
