Explore & Play: Summer Kids Festival

Around 250 children enjoyed a day of adventure, nature, and fun at the Children’s Festival held last Sunday at Merano 2000. In perfect weather conditions, families from across the region gathered to explore a variety of interactive activity stations along Hiking Trail No. 3 from Piffing to Naifjoch. Organized in cooperation with the Youth Service Bolzano Countryside, the program focused on alpine life, wildlife, and the mountain environment. Children completed challenges, collected stamps at each station, and received a small surprise at the end of their discovery journey. Popular activities included traditional whip cracking (Goaslschnöllen), preparing Kaiserschmarrn, and archery, alongside many other creative and hands-on experiences.
