The Schlern, with its imposing 2,564-metre massif and its Santnerspitze, has long been attributed with magical powers.

Dragon Sigi has lived in Hauenstein Castle for a very long time and guards its treasure – but the Schlern witches keep hiding it! Can you help Sigi find it again? While hiking along his four favourite trails, you answer questions. The correct answers reveal a secret solution word.
