The entertaining tour starts and ends at Konolfingen railway station and takes the whole family around 4.6 kilometres through the village (duration: approx. 2.5 hours excl. breaks). A virtual map on your smartphone will guide you from post to post. As soon as you approach a post, the digital content is shown on the display.
In 14 puzzles, young and old learn interesting facts about the region and the origins of the famous Stalden cream in a fun way. To find the letters of the word, you can make a virtual castle appear in the landscape, solve tricky word puzzles, or search the beautiful castle park for artistic animal species - but we won't give too much away, because each puzzle will surprise you. A little surprise awaits you at the end.
Notes:
We recommend the puzzle trail for families with children aged 8 to 12. However, younger children can also join in the puzzles with the help of their parents. The puzzle trail is suitable for pushchairs.
