Santa Visit

Imagine walking through a sparkling, snow-covered forest. The only sounds are the crunch of the snow beneath your snowshoes and your own breathing. Far away from the noise and lights of the city, you are guided through a beautiful, tranquil forest that exudes a very special, mysterious atmosphere. Suddenly, a warm glow appears amidst the tranquillity: Santa is waiting for you in his hut and welcomes you with a smile. The children not only get to meet him in person, but also receive a present from him. If you wish, you can leave a present with the team on site in advance, which Santa will then hand over to the children – for a particularly personal touch. After the visit, you will be served a hot drink before heading back through the winter landscape. The activity lasts a total of 1 hour and is private, exclusively for your family or group. The price is €465 for 1–5 people and €698 for 6–15 people.
