Themed walk

A themed walk is a type of informal learning and often is defined by a walk along which there are information boards or other identifying codes (e.g. QR codes) covering a specific topic or theme such as history,[1] geology or forestry.

They may connect places, buildings or natural features that have a particular theme in common by a signed route, but may also have specifically positioned exhibits.

For science themes, informal learning provides ways to engage in diverse settings.

Other walks are managed by individuals who are highly knowledgeable in a theme, and host theme-based tours.

These paths are intended to give summer tourism in the Alps a new impulse, but are also helping to improve the network of footpaths.
