Tour description

Are you ready for a truly cool adventure?
During the treasure hunt “The Treasure of the Gradenbach,” all little and big explorers receive a mysterious, ancient treasure map that may hold the key to a valuable treasure. This map is not only a relic from long-forgotten times, but also the gateway to an exciting adventure that leads you straight into the heart of the Schladming-Dachstein region.

Various prominent spots are marked with an “X” on the map. At each of these stations, adventurers must solve a riddle. Those who successfully master the challenge receive a secret letter. Once you have collected all the letters, you can pick up your well-deserved treasure at the tourist offices in Haus or Schladming.

Treasure maps are available at the tourist offices in Haus and Schladming or directly on site at the Dorf Café Weißenbach.

The treasure hunt takes about 1–1.5 hours, depending on how much time you would like to spend in this magical place. 😉
