Surviving in the Stone Age

Surviving in the Stone Age!
Immerse yourself in the wilderness and face the ultimate challenge: abandoned in the wild, clad only in a loincloth and equipped with a flint blade… Exaggerated?

Alright, back to reality and what actually awaits you: spend a full day with a survival and Stone Age expert. In the great outdoors, you will try out techniques that were part of Ötzi’s everyday life. Learn how to find and use the natural resources around you. Gain insights into a wide range of processing techniques and manufacturing methods used to produce Stone Age equipment. To practice handling flint blades, we will jointly prepare our food, learning how to make use of all parts produced in the process. Together we will prepare a Stone Age feast—provided that making fire works out…
Perhaps not quite as adventurous as it first sounded, but at least everyone will make it home together again
