Take the kids on an adventure in nature
The app Natureventyr features fun stories experienced as treasure hunts along kid-friendly routes in the beautiful Funen countryside.
Did you know that Svanninge Hills were created when giant dragons settled down and melted the ice in the area with their dragon fire?
At least that's the story according to the Natureventyr app when you explore the Funen nature with their sound-based treasure hunt in your headphones.
With Natureventyr, you can experience a range of uniquely written adventures along specific routes, with new ones added regularly.
As your guide, the app takes you through the adventures chapter by chapter. The narrative incorporates things kids can see, hear, and touch, sprinkled with fun challenges for both children and adults, making the walk an engaging play.
Natureventyr is available for free download on the App Store and Google Play.
Adventure at Your Fingertips
The app provides all the information you need for a family adventure in nature. You can find parking details, facilities at the location, and the route to follow in the area.
The stories in Natureventyr are based on the culture, nature, and history of various areas, but with a healthy dose of imagination.
For example, at the beautiful natural area Stige Ø, the old landfill is transformed into King Scrap's Realm. By sprinkling a layer of imagination and fun challenges over your walks, you'll easily avoid tired little legs.
Some adventures in the app are free, thanks to Natureventyr's collaboration with the local municipality. Others cost 25 kroner to unlock.
