Educational trail “The Bridge of Time”
An integral part of the educational trail is a light fortification construction (colloquially known as a “řopík”) at the beginning of the game, where visitors continue along a 2-kilometre long trail with educational panels. A total of 8 educational panels and a connected interactive game with tasks are thematically and chronologically ordered so that, after an undemanding walk along marked routes taking about one hour, every visitor will return to the present. That is, back to the starting point by the Slaměnka lodge.
A game with elements of augmented reality
Sky Bridge 721 will transport visitors from the present into the past to the period between 1938 and 2021. An engaging story is told by a 16-year-old boy who, against the backdrop of real events in our country’s history and reality connected with the local countryside and region, discovers answers and hidden truths in his own family from Dolní Morava. A unique script, custom recorded video scenes and an interactive reality on your phone’s display transform a simple trip to the ridge of Chlum Mountain into something extraordinary.
