There are some trails to begin with and there are adventures included, all along the path. Just make sure you choose your desired location and difficulty grade
Squirrel Trail is a wonderful trail, suited for families with kids, starting from 3 yrs old. The access is quite easy, as you can get there by car, by bike or bus, in no more than 15 min, starting from the city center.
With patience and quiet, following the steps or traces left by the animals, with binoculars on their eyes and with the camera in hand, we will discover another world and other ways of life.
The route is located in the Turda Gorge nature reserve, in the Vapa forest.
The Trovant Trail is one of the most spectacular trails in the area, because it tells a great story about the giant living rocks from Faget Forest, near Cluj-Napoca.
The route is located in the natural reserve Scăriţa-Belioara, on the limestone plateau named "Şesul Craiului". Scarita- Belioara is a protected area in Apuseni Mountains, very close to other nature gems, like caves, gorges and beautiful waterfalls. Take the time to explore the entire area and you won't regret it!
The World of Tinov under the magnifying glass nature trail, from the ecotourism destination Țara Dornelor, is located in the Tinovul Șaru Dornei Nature Reserve, Suceava County, in the immediate vicinity of the Visitor Center of Călimani National Park. The route in Tinovul Mic is well marked and can be followed on a wooden path.
Retezat Mountains is a spectacular area, where you can find many trails and nature wonders. The trail starts in Nucsoara, in Hunedoara county, it is an easy trails and not very well known. The panels with fauna and flora information are found all along the trail, so it is also a nice learning oportunity, for children and adults of any age.
Welcome to the thematic route „Discover the secrets of the forest”!
The route is arranged in a forest, public property of the Romanian State, administered by the Sibiu Forest Department subordinated to the Sibiu Forestry Directorate, included in the Natural Reservation „Dumbrava Sibiului Natural Park”.
The "Mysteries of the Forest" themed trail arranged by the Transylvania Nature Association, together with the Green Eco Association invites you to observe the fauna, flora and birds. The path contains 6 educational-formative panels that describe the ecosystem of the forest and are addressed to children, but also to adults. For this reason we recommend this route to families.
Learning in nature, experiencing education as an adventure... this is how the concept of "eduventure" could be translated and summarized.
The little ones thus leave their usual environment, the comfort zone, and, meeting nature, learn to understand and protect it. The themed trails, information boards and other tourist facilities in the Craiului Forest aim to support this daring learning technique.
Our mission is to inspire a great love for the outdoors, for connecting in real life with friends & family, for feeling joyful and excited about nature’s wonders, for creating experiences that we remember for a lifetime. Nature creates a strong bond between humans, and not just humans, but all living beings on Planet Earth, therefore we let Mother Nature guide us, on trails we never knew were there before.
Our special team takes care of every detail, so you have all the time in the world to just enjoy the trails, adventures and experiences. Nature is waiting for you and it is patient, it endures all seasons, without hesitation, it is resilient and transforms all elements, into precious gifts for those who choose to receive them.
What are these gifts Nature gives us?
We will not remember a day that we spent in front of the Tv, but we will surely remember a day spent with our family or friends, taking a hike in the forest, maybe losing the trail and find it again later, feeling a bit scared, but still eager to continue the adventure, ready to explore more of the awesome outdoor places that only a few know about. The stories we create, while taking on new adventures in real life, will always make our life more joyful and exciting, no matter where we go or what the weather will be.
Whenever we choose Adventure over a Tv Show, Hiking with our friends, over playing a video game or Playing a real life game, over an online meet-up, we actually create Connections, Experiences, Memories and Joyful moments, that will last for years or maybe even for a lifetime.
Explore outdoor locations and enjoy a new kind of learning experience. Quests & treasure hunts are all you need
All the adventures are designed so you enjoy the outdoors, while you also have a lot of fun, by playing games or taking challenges
Take Play-Trails with you in the outdoors, as your guide, and prepare for some awesome experiences. Stay on the path and be ready to enjoy every step of your journey
Next time you can't decide whether you want to go outside for a hike or watch a Tv Show, just think about our trails, that are especially created so you enjoy the real world, more than the virtual one
We encourage you to send us pics and stories from your journeys and adventures, so others may find inspiration for their own experiences
A few insights of our friend’s adventures and trails
Hiker&Mom
I am so excited to take another trail with my kids, now that i have something to aim for, on our trip. We used to go hiking before, but there was always some fun missing. Now we have it there, it's awesome to go out in nature, play with your kids and know that they will also learn something, during that time. This is more than school already!
Webdev & Father
This idea is one of the greatest out there! We are so excited now to go outdoors, all of my students love our trips to the park or even the school yard, ever since we discovered Play-Trails. The fact that they get to play together, while learning the lessons they need to learn, makes them more connected and open to new concepts or information. Nature is indeed the greatest teachers of all!

Let nature be your guide, explore and learn about the world, together
Real and imagined stories, stories that fascinate you, take you far away and make you see reality through new eyes
An adventure to remember and learn from. The challenge will be to go with your friends or family into a forest and try to build an Obstacle Race, but using only natural materials that you can find there. These could be tree branches, tree stumps, rocks, puddles, bushes, whatever you can find and use as an "obstacle". The longer and more complicated the race, the more you'll learn to think outside the box
Find a place in a city you like or maybe your own city, and start to look at it, in a different way. Each element has certain measures, like height, width, etc. Try to take your kids outside and help them learn a bit of math, maybe geometry, while you will all play and walk together, going on a great urban adventure.
This is a game for the ones who like to spin fast)just like the planets do). You will need a strong adult, willing to play the Sun and spin around, and an infinite number of children, who will rotate around the Sun, each one with a different speed. Prepare to collide with your favorite planet

Play-Trails Adventure Tool
I discovered Play-Trails just a little while ago and it's been amazing what a difference it has already made, in our lives. When we go outside, my daughter doesn't cry anymore, she is interested in exploring the surroundings and eager to play with me, while we take on trails. I am so happy that learning has become easier!
