You step off the tram into Bergamo’s lower city with a phone in your hand and a myth in your ear: Artemis has chosen you as Atalanta, and ten golden balls are waiting beneath urban façades and market corners.
The route threads through Città Bassa—wide boulevards, small piazzas, and streets where 19th-century urban planning meets older medieval lanes. As you follow GPS prompts, the game layers Greek myth over real landmarks: civic buildings that speak to Bergamo’s Austro-Hungarian and Lombard past, and alleyways that hint at the medieval network behind the modern city.
Geology here is subtle: the city sits on gentle moraines left by alpine glaciers, so expect mostly flat walking with occasional short stair runs where older streets meet later extensions. Culture shows in café counters, neighborhood bakeries, and local nicknames—this is a working town as much as a tourist stop, which gives the puzzles a lived-in texture.
Practical guidance: the experience is self-guided and takes roughly 1–1.5 hours (about 2–3 km on foot) on mostly paved streets and cobbles. You’ll need a charged smartphone, the event app pre-downloaded, and a pair of comfortable shoes. Pause and resume anytime; public transport links and tram stops bookend the route. Bring water, watch for traffic on busier roads, and allow extra time if you want to linger at cafés or detour into nearby Città Alta after the game.
