Escape van Fort Rijnauwen (at Vroeg)

Bunnik 1 room

About this venue

Escape van Fort Rijnauwen is a seasonal outdoor escape game (mid-April to end of September) across the 31-hectare Fort Rijnauwen near Bunnik, the largest fort of the Nieuwe Hollandse Waterlinie. Restaurant Vroeg provides the frame: welcome drink, briefing, roughly 60 minutes of play on the normally closed fort grounds and a prize ceremony afterwards โ€” often combined with a dinner or drinks arrangement for groups. The game is more of a treasure hunt than a classic escape room: teams walk considerable distances and earn bonus hints through optional tasks along the way. Visitors praise especially the unique, overgrown fort location and the catering around it; critical voices argue that it should have been sold as a treasure hunt and that the game falls flat in bad weather. On escapetalk there are too few reviews for a score; booking is done through arrangement partners.

What visitors say

  • The unique location: a normally closed, overgrown 19th-century fort spanning 31 hectares
  • The complete evening around it at restaurant Vroeg โ€” welcome drink, game and prize ceremony with food and drink
  • Rather a treasure hunt than a real escape room โ€” that's not made clear in the description, complains a reviewer
  • Weather-dependent and story-light: in rain there's little left
