The school for skills of primitive people


The survival school Tyrol has set itself the goal to collect and pass on the knowledge of our ancestors. The skills of our ancestors around the globe are taught at the survival school in different courses, in the Ötzi village to children, adolescents and adults. All courses are always characterized by sustainability, respect and sense of togetherness.

Ötzi family camp

How do I make fires without modern tools or how do I recognize edible wild plants? The Ötzi Weekend in the Ötzi Village in Umhausen provides answers to these and similar questions. For four days we experience what life looked like during the lifetime of the glacier mummy Ötzi about 5.000 years ago.
