The Energy Fort: a thrilling adventure

The Energy Fort: a thrilling adventure

A blackout has paralysed the entire Bellinzona region. Electricity has disappeared, activities have come to a standstill, and daily life is on hold. Only your team can solve the emergency: enter the Energy Fort, decipher the clues, complete the circuits and reactivate the main switch. This is the scenario awaiting you in Ticino’s first educational escape room.

The Energy Fort is located in the historic “Al Pian di Bur” fort in Camorino, part of the Fortini della Fame. Inside, an interactive experience challenges the group with activities based on the principles of electrical energy: circuits to complete, hidden components to find and puzzles to solve through teamwork. The experience is suitable for families with children, groups of friends, couples looking for something different, and schools. The scientific content has been developed in collaboration with the Technorama Swiss Science Center in Winterthur. Activities are managed by the Giardino della Scienza in Ascona, with guides accompanying visitors throughout the experience.
