Experience nature in all its diversity and marvel at the home of the little witch Vero - that's exactly what Vero's treasure hunt offers. And of course it's also about finding the treasure with the help of the treasure map. Look for clues and riddle together. An active experience outside in nature, which makes hiking more popular with children in a playful way and creates shared memories. The riddles can be picked up at the tourist office in Blatten near Naters. Have fun with exploring and puzzling!

Safety information

Despite the " impossible to miss " markings of the hiking trails, we recommend for safety reasons to always have an appropriate hiking map with you, so that you can quickly find your way to a safe area in case of a thunderstorm or an emergency, for example.

Especially in autumn, you should also be aware that leaves lying on the ground can hide bumps, roots, stones or holes in the path. After storms, trees can still fall over or branches can fall down. Especially in adverse weather conditions, muddy and slippery passages can occur on natural paths. You have to expect this kind of path impairment when you go on a hike.

Not all rocks or precipices are secured with ropes or railings. In some cases surefootedness is required. If you are of the opinion that certain sections of the trail are not passable for you, you should avoid them.
