Climate LOOKouts

Outdoor Learning App

Sparbach, Austria

How can you make climate change and its consequences tangible? The app takes visitors on an educational hike through Austria’s oldest nature park.

The multilingual app accompanies a route with nine Climate LOOKouts along a predetermined route in Sparbach Nature Park, turning visitors into real climate forest experts. The forest floor as a CO2 reservoir or heat-resistant tree species of the future – at each stop, multimedia content and quizzes convey different aspects of the topic of climate and forests.

Collecting points with wild boars

Users receive points in the form of small wild boar piglets for correctly answering questions. The more questions that are answered correctly, the larger the herd of wild boar will grow over the course of the hike. At the end, a digital Climate-LOOKplaces certificate can be earned and shared on social media.

Th app offers an exciting play and learning experience for children, school classes and adults who are young at heart.
