Take the kids on an adventure in nature

Did you know that Svanninge Bakker was created when giant dragons settled in the area and melted the ice with their dragon fire? At least, that is how the story goes if you explore the nature of Fyn and the Islands with the Natureventyr app.

With the Natureventyr app as your guide, you follow the fairytales from chapter to chapter while reading or listening to one of the exciting stories. Each fairytale is inspired by the things children can see, hear and touch along the way, with plenty of fun challenges and quiz questions for both children and adults that turn the walk into a game. Along the way, you will also learn a little more about the nature you are exploring.

Natureventyr is available for free download on the App Store and Google Play - and you can choose English language in the settings. 

Adventure at your fingertips

In the app, you will find all the information you need as a family heading out into nature. You can see where to park, which facilities are available on site, and which route to follow in the area. This makes it easier to set off on a nature adventure — without tired little legs.

Some of the fairytales in the app are free, because Natureventyr collaborates with the relevant municipality. Others cost DKK 25 to unlock
