Blindgang – Escape room

Escape room
Based on a Wisting novel by Jørn Lier Horst of the same name – where the breakthrough in the case is hidden in a locked safe, deep in a basement, central in Stavern. The goal of the game is simple. Together and only with the help of the objects in the room, you should try to get out before 60 minutes have passed. Here you have to be creative, crack codes, solve puzzles and find hidden objects in the room to succeed!

During the summer, Stavernopplevelser also rents out Stand Up Paddleboard and kayak.
