The stormy night of Vaia left a trail of destruction across the Latemar forest – and it's the dramatic setting for this immersive family adventure: “Vaia’s Wrath” is an exciting audio trail that tells a story of bravery, teamwork and resilience in nature.
Join siblings Toni and Klara on the search for their lost calf Peppi, who vanished after the storm. But the forest is no longer peaceful: fallen trees, rushing streams and tricky challenges await you on the path.
Through the use of a free app, a narrated audio story, a fun adventure booklet and interactive puzzle stations, children aged 6 to 14 dive into a thrilling tale while discovering the power of the forest. Along the way, they also collect points that contribute to reforesting the area.
A magical hike full of action, learning and unforgettable moments.
The trail begins at the upper station of the Ochsenweide gondola in Obereggen, at approximately 1,552 m elevation. From there, follow trail [9] – LATEMAR.ALP toward Mayrl Alm.
The route is well marked with Latemar.Adventure signs and forms a loop trail of about 2.5 km, taking roughly 2 hours including story and puzzle stops.
Along the way you'll find:
QR codes for activating the audio segments
Puzzle and play stations for kids
Story elements about the Vaia storm
Resting points with views of the storm-damaged forest
The trail ends back at the gondola upper station, where you’ll find facilities, a restaurant and a large wooden playground.
