Itinerary
& Highlights |

Sunday
Flights, Arrival and Welcome
You will be met at Friedrichshafen Airport from where we transfer to our accommodation in Bad Hindelang. After settling in, there will be an introductory meeting with our guide followed by a welcome dinner.
Please note that if you want to make your own travel arrangements then a flight-exclusive discount applies.
Monday
Team Treasure Hunt
A treasure hunt with a difference is the best possible way to start this activity week and get acquainted with the other families on the holiday. We will have to negotiate all sorts of tasks to find the treasure. These tasks vary from week to week but expect to be confronted by the likes of: a spider’s web, building a rope bridge, tree climbing, a flying fox zip wire over a deep gorge, a team skiing competition and the traditional Bavarian art of Sumo wrestling!! Quite simply it’s fun and laughter from start to finish. A barbeque lunch is included.
Tuesday
Tubing
It’s wet but not wild on the River Iller, which makes it ideal for tubing.
We spend the day twisting and turning on the beautiful stretch between Oberstdorf and Sonthofen. A hilarious experience.
Wednesday
Canyoning
Today we head for a family friendly canyon and an exhilarating river descent. Enjoy natural rock slides, abseiling or jumping into deep pools of water as we descend the course of the canyon.
Thursday
Free Day
Today you can further explore the region by visiting the Neuschwanstein Castle or try additional activities.
Friday
High Ropes Adventure Course
Our high ropes course is set in the forest above the village of Sonthofen. We work our way through a number of rope tasks, each creating a unique mental and physical problem and requiring a different technique.
Saturday
Mini-Rafting
Crossing the border into Austria we head for the Lech River. Mini-rafting is rather like white water rafting but, as the name suggests, in smaller inflatables. This gives you far more control over your raft and a far greater sense of individuality. A fabulous way to explore any river. There will be a farewell dinner this evening.
Saturday
Depart or Extend Your Stay
Today we transfer back to the airport for your return flights or you may choose to extend your stay either in the Allgau Region, Austria or down by the Bodenese close to the Swiss/German border - the choice is yours! |
