The “Path of the Smugglers” Escape Trail was our first Escape Trail in Saalbach and is a popular classic. It is an outdoor puzzle adventure in Saalbach Hinterglemm. You are out in nature together, solving tricky tasks and working your way through a story that leads you from station to station. Ideal for families with older children, groups of friends and anyone who likes to experience the mountains with their wits about them.

The start is easily organized. You can pick up your play set at the Tourist Service Center, and the best thing is that you can take it with you along with a Buckelkraxn. This also makes the trail practical for families if a child needs a break in between.

Along the way, the game guides you step by step through the story. You solve tasks, combine clues and work as a team. This is exactly what makes the game so appealing.

The Escape Trail is particularly suitable for:

• Families with teenagers who want to create something together
• Groups of friends who like puzzles and enjoy being outdoors
• Holidaymakers who want to combine a mountain day with a story and tasks
• Teams who want to puzzle together and keep moving at the same time

Start with a plan. Who reads, who navigates, who holds the notes? A little division of roles saves time.

Celebrate small successes. Every task solved adds to the story. This is motivating, especially for children.

Battery is everything. Pack a power bank and turn down the display brightness. Then you can stay relaxed until the final.

Consciously take breaks. Short stop, water, view of the mountains. After that, puzzles are often solved more quickly.

When Anna is freed and the conspiracy is uncovered, the day can end on a soft note. A dip in the pool, warmth in the Berg.Spa, then an evening spent reliving the best moments. This is exactly what Hinterglemm feels like. And when the next adventure beckons, try out the 2nd Escape Trail.
