Step on the trail of Oskar Kos and his friends. Discover the secrets hidden in one of the most beautiful gorges in the world. An unforgettable three-hour experience awaits you.

First, you will experience the fairytale gorge with the Radovna River and at three interactive points you will get to know its most special inhabitant – the white-throated dipper, which literally walks under the surface of the running water every day. At the mighty Šum Waterfall, where the tour through the gorge ends, the adventure trail continues.

Along the way, children will find ten adventure spots where they will complete fun and educational tasks and help Oskar the white-throated dipper deliver an important message.

Vintgar

FOR CHILDREN MAP

From the VINTGAR entrance info centre, you will follow the 1.6-kilometre-long Vintgar Fairytale Trail. The trail winds along the crystal-clear Radovna River with its numerous pools all the way to Šum Waterfall, which you can hear from afar. And how it burbles!

At the end of the trail, a sign will direct you back to the VINTGAR entrance info centre. Make sure you follow the Vintgar Children’s Trail, as there are ten adventure spots for children. They will help Oskar Kos deliver his message. They will also explore the Bear’s Playground, the Fox’s Detective Office, the Squirrel Village, Oskar’s song and other interesting features.

There is a QR code at every adventure spot. Make sure you scan it, as children will listen to sound recordings to hear interesting stories and learn little-known facts about the different inhabitants of Vintgar – foxes, white-throated dippers, bears and squirrels.

There are also special tasks that children have to complete at those ten adventure spots. An important hint: at the end of the trail, children will get a reward for doing the tasks: The Real Life of Oskar Kos from Vintgar Gorge book. You can collect it at the VINTGAR entrance info centre.!

Oskar needs your help

The Nature Festival, the most important event around, is coming soon. Oskar is the main organiser, and he’s also in charge of informing the inhabitants of the gorge about it. Just after he had taken the flyers with the message to all his friends, a storm ripped through the gorge and blew the flyers away. So now none of his friends know when and where the celebrations will take place.

Become a hero of the gorge

Only you can help Oskar and his friends celebrate the Nature Festival together again this year. At the entrance centre in Vintgar, you will receive a passport and a magic ball with a message. Follow the instructions in the passport, solve all the tasks and carry the ball with the message to all Oskar’s friends. As a thank you, Oskar will give you a free fairytale book.
