25 km around Graz

Castles, caves and summits near Graz

Graz is ringed by hills and the list knows it: 163 peaks within 25 km, the Schloßberg at 1.1 km, the Buchkogel at 6 km, the Schöckl at 14.6 km. Two lookout towers from around 1880, the Rudolfswarte at 658 meters and the Stephanienwarte, stand within 6 km of the center. Castles run to 56, with Schloss Stübing at 15.5 km and Ruine Ligist, Burgruine Obervoitsberg and Burgruine Alt-Wildon around 20 km out.

Then the caves: 68 of them, led by the Lurgrotte at Semriach (18.2 km), with the Grasslhöhle and the Katerloch past 21 km and the Eisbründlhöhle only 5.4 km from town. The single windmill on the list is a Klapotetz, the wooden wind rattle of Styrian vineyards. Be the first RLQuest player to complete a quest at one and it's your first find.

How Graz turns into a game

RLQuest knows these places too. Which means:

1

Places become quests

Some of your daily quests lead to a real place near you. The app uses your location to check you were really there.

2

Being first pays off

If you're the first person in RLQuest to complete a quest at a place, it's your first find. The Place Book shows you which kinds of place you're still missing.

3

The map fills in

Every walk uncovers tiles, each about 350 m across. Over time you can see which corners you know well, and where you've never set foot.
