No screen, but plenty of gaming: the ultimate adventure outing for the whole family!

Are you looking for a place where kids can run, explore, work together, and challenge themselves? That’s exactly what Fort Vertier was made for! In this interactive Roman fort, kids go on an adventure in and around the fort—a huge maze with challenges and plenty of space to climb, scramble, and slide.

Equipped with a special interactive wristband, they check in at the checkpoints and complete challenging tasks. Since the wristband tracks their time, it adds an exciting competitive element. It feels like gaming, but without a screen. With three different games across two age levels, they can have a blast for over two hours.

It’s great for parents, too: you don’t have to constantly chase after your kids. From the shaded picnic benches, you have a perfect view of the fort while you enjoy a cup of coffee, a soft drink, or an ice cream from the kiosk. And with neighbors like La Place, Burger King, and KFC just around the corner, you can wrap up this active family outing, kids’ party, or school trip on a really fun note.

"The 7- and 12-year-olds kept themselves entertained for two hours with the three different types of games they could play. It was especially nice that the questions they were given took their different ages into account."

"This was our first time here, and we weren't quite sure what to expect, but the friendly staff member explained everything clearly, and then the fun could begin! We got to explore the inside of each tower, and then the kids played the next game—this was also clearly explained, and the kids had the absolute best time! At the end, they got a super cool Fort Vertier tattoo, and they had a fantastic adventure! Thanks!"
