Das Geheimnis der Berglinge

In the organizer's words:

What are mountain goats? You'll find out with us.

Together you will set off in search of the secret of the Berglinge. Part of the little treasure hunt is the MachMit fairytale theater, which invites you to a theater scene with music, movement and dance. Afterwards, with the help of Maren Amini, you will set off in search of the hidden Berglings. Each Bergling has an exciting task for you, which you can answer with the help of Maren and her book "The Berglings". At the end, you will receive an official "Bergling expert card".
