5 challenges to rise above, during and after the race

Become the king of the Geneva Lake Quiz

How does it work?

The quiz is composed by 29 questions, 1 per relay point. When you pass through each relay point, you will find a sheet with 1 question and 3 answers to choose from (1 true, 2 false). The mates will have to go on each relay point to get the questions. These will be about the culture and the history of the Lake Geneva area.

You will need to scan the QR code with your mobile phone to get the question online. Don’t worry, you don’t need an app to scan the QR code, you can use the camera of your phone to do it.

You answer it and that’s it.

The team with the most correct answers will win this challenge. The results of the questions can be found here.
