Tucked into Abenteuerpark Achensee, the Funkelnde Schatzkammer turns simple curiosity into a sequence of tactile challenges: wash pans at a waterfall to pull glittering finds from sand, sieve out gemstones as a family, or set off with only a cryptic map in search of the park’s hidden hoard. Experiences range from short, playful sessions to half-day adventures, and participants can pick the format that fits their appetite for hands-on discovery.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

The Funkelnde Schatzkammer is less a single itinerary than a set of modular experiences: short gold‑panning sessions at a waterfall, family sieving around a shared patch of sand, and map‑led treasure hunts that send you wandering through the park’s planted clues. Each option is deliberately low‑tech and tactile — you choose the format and pace, then collect the small, glittering evidence of your effort.
