How does the treasure hunt work?
You can get the instructions for the treasure hunt at the Swiss Post branch. If the branch is closed, you will find a yellow Swiss Post safe with a combination lock near the entrance (see picture).
The code for the combination lock is Swiss Post’s birth year. The safe contains an envelope with the treasure hunt instructions.
The instructions are available on-site in French. All languages are also available for download below. To take part in the competition, don’t forget to bring your documents (including downloads) with you on the treasure hunt.
More information
For the treasure hunt, you need a smartphone with Internet access and a pen. Everything else is included in the instructions.
The treasure hunt is pushchair accessible.

Sustainable and creative delivery
Whether in snow, rain or cold, in the lowlands or the mountain regions: Swiss Post has always been committed to ensuring that letters and parcels reach their recipients on time. For deliveries in certain mountain regions, it sometimes uses unconventional or more traditional means such as quad bikes and cable cars, boats or sledges.
Sustainability has been a major topic in delivery for years: in 2017, all of Swiss Post’s approximately 6,000 two- and three-wheeled delivery vehicles were converted to battery power. Delivery in larger cities is currently being converted entirely to e-vehicles in phases – as is currently the case in Zurich, Bern, Basel and Geneva.
