Clue 1

Remember this treasure hunt is played using Google Earth and not Google Maps.

Welcome to the Bavaria Wanderlust Treasure Hunt!

The name Bavaria comes from the Medieval Latin Boiaria, named for the Boii, the ancient Celtic people who once lived there. In German it is known as Bayern hence the name Bayern Munich for the football team from the city of Munich.

Before starting check your Google Earth map style is set to 'Everything' this will show the information you need to complete the hunt. Do this by clicking on the buttons highlighted below:

To begin the hunt bring up the Google Earth search bar by clicking on the magnifying glass icon .
Type Bavaria in and click enter.
This will bring up the entire state surrounded by a red line.
Within this area find the capital of the state (the largest and most famous city).
What is the name of this city?
Check you have the correct city by typing it in the box below:

Did you know? Facts about the autobahns.

The German autobahns were conceived in the mid 1920s but only when the Nazis came to power in the 1930s did their construction rapidly increase, through Adolf Hitler's job creation plans. They are famous for having no speed limit. However, limits are enforced in areas that are urbanised, substandard, accident-prone, or under construction.

Now with the help of the autobahns find Bayern Munich F.C's home stadium. Read the information below about this ground breaking stadium picking up key points to help you find it.

Opened in 2005 this 70,000 capacity stadium is the second biggest in Germany behind Borussia Dortmund's. It's famous for being the first stadium in the world with a full colour changing exterior, the exterior panels appear white from far away but when examined closely, there are little dots which light up. Munich Police strongly insists on using a single-colour lighting scheme due to several car accidents on the nearby 99 Autobahn with drivers being distracted by the changing lights. The distinctive architecture of the stadium has given it the nickname "Schlauchboot" ("dinghy").

Once found zoom in above the stadium and answer this question - There are 3 words on the seats of the west stand, which word is repeated twice? Check your answer in the box at the end of this step.

Tip - to help you find the answer use the 3D feature by switching into 3D mode, do this by clicking once on the button in the corner.

DON'T GET CONFUSED - when you are in 2D mode the 3D button will be visible and vice versa.

Then use the zooming and spinning tools to move the view around:

If you are new to Google Earth this is how to look around photos and the map:

If you are using a PC:

Zoom in and out using the + & - buttons or quickly using the scroll wheel on a mouse.
Move around by clicking down, holding + moving.
Spin your view by holding down shift + moving or by holding down the mouse scroll wheel and moving.

If you are using a touch screen:

Zoom in and out using 2 fingers in a pinching motion.
Move around using a finger.
Spin your view using 2 fingers in a rotating motion.

Did you know the club badge also features the flag of Bavaria?

Look at the club badge seen on the the seats of the northern stand. The blue and white diamond pattern in the middle can also be found on the flag of Bavaria which comes from the coat of arms of the Wittelsbach dynasty, who ruled Upper Bavaria from 1240 to 1918.

Use the tools provided on Google Earth to follow these directions to your next clue:

Track the closest river southwards.
Notice where it's joined by a canal.
Look closely after this point and follow the man-made river which branches off on its western side.
Follow this river all the way to the point where it disappears under the city.
Stop here and zoom into a height of 550m / 600m above this point.
Set the height by zooming in and out as instructed above and stopping at the correct height as shown below:

clue 1 picture 2 Wanderlust treasure hunt and scavenger hunt club bavaria

This will bring you into a picture that will have a single white arrow as shown in the picture below. This will be known as Photo 1.
If you cannot see this then you are in the wrong picture exit (by clicking on the arrow in the top left corner) and repeat the previous step until you are in the correct one.

Spin around this photo to face the bridge, notice what is happening on the river. Click on the arrow once this will change your view into another photo - this will be known as Photo 2.
Click on the arrow again and it will change your view back into Photo 1.
Below is a matrix of the 2 photos and 6 surfers, this shows which surfers appear in each photo (some appear in both whilst others in only 1).
Study the 2 photos and complete the matrix by filling in the missing 3 circles, use this as the password to access the next page.
E.g. for the first blank circle (top left) check if surfer A and surfer D appear in both photos.
For the second circle (middle top) the answer is 'yes' because surfer B and surfer D appear in Photo 1.
Etc...
