Explore, learn, and protect biodiversity with your team
Pirates of the Forest is an immersive treasure hunt through trees, trails, and biodiversity, designed for corporate team building. Armed with maps, clues, and a spirit of exploration, participants take on an adventure that combines teamwork, discovery, and ecological responsibility. Thanks to the use of smartphones and the iNaturalist app, each team collects data on local species, turning the competition into a scientific and sustainable activity.
