Nature’s playground

In Pepis Kinderland on the Penkenjoch, youngsters can let off steam on the giant trampoline, explore the labyrinth and climb the 8-metre wooden bear Pepi. Inside the friendly giant bear, there is a playhouse on three levels, including a climbing wall and a fun house mirror - perfect for young explorers! Those brave enough might venture onto the two towers, where they can balance on hanging bridges 7 metres aboveground, all the way to the 15-metre slide that takes you back down in no time at all. A guaranteed adrenaline rush!

The Almspielerei Eggalm adventure playground at an altitude of 1,950 m is perfect for even the smallest mountaineers and comes with several different stations, such as a large pond with a towing boat, a slackline, and an exciting hiking rally.

TUX Worlds

When a hiking tour has lots of exciting adventures and challenges to offer, the kids are sure to cooperate! The Tux Worlds consist of six themed trails that help children discover the magnificent natural setting of the Tux valley. The Glacier Flea Safari, for instance, is a course with tricky puzzles that young explorers need to answer. The Ball Safari is all about tracking the small wooden balls on their way to the finishing line. In the Glacier World, the young and young-at-heart can try tubing or indulge in a good old-fashioned snowball fight. The Nature World, Animal World, Gorge World and Water World also offer adventures galore.
