## Eight puzzle stations about the little fox Fidelius

The Fuchsfährte begins three kilometres from our apartments. Four kilometres of circular trail between the Faaker See and the Aichwaldsee, eight puzzle stations along the way, and the whole story revolves around the little fox Fidelius.

No long drive, no preparation. You can also reach the trail on foot.

## Why the Fuchsfährte is worth it for families on the Faaker See

At the eight stations children solve puzzles about the plants and animals of the region. The first section of the route is suitable for prams, so families with toddlers can come along too. On the Aichwaldsee there is a sandbank for a break.

## What to expect

- Circular trail of approx. 4 km between Faaker See and Aichwaldsee
- Eight adventure stations with puzzles about Fidelius the fox
- Free activity booklet at the tourist information office in Faak am See
- First part of the route suitable for prams
- A stop at the Café Seerose on the Aichwaldsee

## Our insider tip

Because the starting point is so close, the Fuchsfährte also works as a spontaneous afternoon outing. Pick up the activity booklet and off you go; it takes no more planning than that.
