Over 1,700 participants at the moving festival criss -cross in Allach!
The 14th edition of the popular mobility project "Kreuz & Quer" recently took place in the Munich district of Allach-Untermenzing. From May 28 to July 9, 2025, impressive 1,700 children, young people and adults took part in this exciting scavenger hunt. The participants covered an impressive 103,870 kilometers on foot, by bike or scooter. This campaign aims to motivate people to exercise active movement and at the same time to promote a climate -friendly approach to their district. In order to reward the commitment, a real festival day was celebrated at the final party on July 17th in the AWO youth center Orange Planet.
One of the highlights of this festival was the honor of the winners by mobility officer Georg Dunkel. The primary school on Theodor-Fischer-Straße was particularly pleased: it achieved the longest route with an average of 93.69 kilometers per participant. The top positions were taken by three teams, which were covered by over 2,487 kilometers:
- Dreamteam: 971.25 km
- Hoppelhasen: 810.66 km
- The Goats: 705.64 km
a festival for the whole family
The final party offered numerous attractions such as bouncy castles, face painting and Kasperltheater. These entertainment options were activated by the collected points of the participants. A real fun for young and old!
The "Cross & Cross" concept can also be seen in connection with modern, digital schnitzel hunts. This innovative variant brings a breath of fresh air to the traditional game geocaching. In such digital rally, app and GPS are used to lead the participants through interactive treasure searches. Each place has small rewards or tasks that need to be mastered. Programming not only promotes physical activity, but also cognitive skills and teamwork - and conveniently out of your own neighborhood. This gives families the opportunity to playfully get in motion and explore the surroundings together without having to do without screen activities. The fun and learning are always in the foreground. This not only motivates the little ones, but also the parents can actively participate in the revitalization of the local streets.
In order to ensure a secure framework, experts recommend that adults support the use of the apps and that children are informed about digital security practices. With family trips, there are also a lot of small snacks and rewards to increase motivation.
outlook for the next round
After the successful final event, the anticipation for the next round of "Kreuz & Quer" remains great. This starts on October 1st in Neuhausen-Sachermannbogen and will get the little adventurers in motion again. A complete success on all levels!
