A legendary adventure awaits young explorers and nature-loving families at the foot of the Latemar. With “The Secret of the Little Man of Venice”, this unique audio trail leads you deep into a world of Dolomite legends, puzzles and natural magic.
Together with siblings Klara and Toni, your family embarks on a mysterious journey through the forest. It all begins with an old tale about the Latemar puppets – when suddenly a strange little man appears: the Little Man of Venice, straight out of the legend. He’s lost his knife and needs your help! But beware – tricky challenges, hidden clues and even a wicked witch lie ahead.
With the help of a narrated audio story, an adventure booklet, interactive stations, and a free app, children aged 6 to 14 can explore nature playfully and solve puzzles that also contribute to forest reforestation. It’s a hike full of fun, learning, and teamwork.
“The Secret of the Little Man of Venice” is more than just a walk – it’s a magical journey of discovery, where fantasy meets movement and nature awareness. Perfect for families who love to explore, imagine, and create memories together.
